Superior Court of Pennsylvania July 17, 1956, Appeal, 43 (Rankin v. Rankin)

Opinion by

Wright, J.,

On February 3, 1953, Michael J. Rankin instituted an action in divorce against his wife, Edith L. Rankin. The parties were at that time aged 58 and 43 years, respectively. The complaint originally alleged cruel and barbarous treatment and indignities to the person, but was subsequently amended to include a charge of desertion.
