As this cause is for divorce, and is mainly a question of fact, it requires no lengthy discussion, especially as no possible good could follow the spreading of the differences of the parties upon the records of the court or the pages of its reports. The application is by the husband, and an earnest effort to familiarize ourselves with the testimony has induced the conviction that complainant has proved his case. Counsel for defendant say that the proof shows mere incompatibility. We think it shows more. That there was incompatibility is obvious enough,
It appears that the parties have one child, which is with the mother. There is no evidence of unfitness on the part of the mother to have charge of it, and its custody will be awarded to her until it reaches the age of 14 years, or until the further ordey of the circuit court. No request for alimony or provision for the maintenance of the child has been made. We therefore recommit the case to the circuit court for further proceedings in this regard should application be made hereafter.
A decree in conformity to the above opinion may be taken, granting to complainant a decree of divorce from the bonds of matrimony, and allowing to defendant her expenses of printing, and a solicitor’s fee of $75.
