Opinion:
Mr. Justice Moore
delivered the opinion of the court.
This is a suit by Jessie E. Crim against John L. Crim to dissolve the marriage contract existing between them. From a decree granting the divorce in plaintiff's favor, the defendant appeals. No good purpose will be subserved by quoting from or commenting upon the testimony, a careful examination of which convinces us that the plaintiff is not free from fault.
This being so, the decree should be reversed and the suit dismissed, and it is so ordered.
Reversed: Suit Dismissed.
Mr. Chief Justice McBride, Mr. Justice Burnett and Mr. Justice Ramsey concur.
