Divorce Suit.— ln the case of Maria Chatfield vs. Charles Chatfield, which was a suit for divorce on the ground of adultery, charged to have been commited by the defendant May 7th, a decree was entered in the Sixth District Court dismissing the bill on the ground of collusion between the parties. The plaintitf afterwards moved for an order setting aside the finding and decree, and for a new trial, on the ground that the decision was against law and evidence. The District Court, after reviewing the facts in the case, comes to the conclusion that the plaintiff was cognizant of the alleged crime and assented thereto, and that the collusion between the parties was so apparent that the motion for a new trial must be annulled. An order was directed to be entered accordingly.
