1Opinion of the Court
Nichols, Chief Justice.
The appeal in this case arises as a result of a divorce and alimony action which originated in Lowndes Superior Court. The wife sued her husband for divorce upon the single ground that the marriage was irretrievably broken. The husband answered that he did not know whether the marriage was irretrievably broken but alleged that if it was, it was the result of cruel treatment by the wife.
The trial court directed a verdict granting the divorce and presented the question of alimony to the jury.
