Supreme Court of Pennsylvania October 28, 1889, No. 223 (Melvin v. Melvin)

Per Curiam:

The petition of Mrs. Melvin, on which this proceeding is based, sets forth two grounds for divorce a mensa et thoro, with alimony, viz.: (1) Cruel and barbarous treatment by her husband, endangering her life; (2) such indignities to her per*15son as to render her condition intolerable and life burdensome, and thereby force her to withdraw from his house and family.
