Head Matter:
ANNE WILSON v. GEORGE WILSON.
Divorce — poligamy—adultery—injunction pending suit against meddling with the children, , or the property in possession of the wife.
A record of the conviction of a man of poligamy in another state, is not proof of adultery of itself, in a divorce case.
"Where the evidence fails and the cause is continued, the court will, hi a proper case, enjoin the husband from interfering with the children or .property, in the possession of the wife, - pending the suit.
Divorce. Causes — 1. Wilful absence. 2. Adultery with Catharine Rogers.
The petitioner relied upon the charge of adultery, and to prove it, offered a record of the conviction of the defendant of having married one Catharine Rogers in Pennsylvania since his marriage with the petitioner, and proof of the identity of the person.

Opinion:
By the Court.
That does not make out the adultery. The crime of adultery would be incomplete, without carnal connection. We may presume a connection, and it is probable one took place; but we have no proof of it.
Leave was given to amend the petition, and upon application of the petitioner, the defendant was enjoined from interfering with the custody of the children, or the property in possession of the petitioner, until the final hearing of the case: and the cause was continued.
