Opinion by

Ross, J.,

The parties in this divorce action were married on August 23, 1924, and lived together until December 15, 1944, when the husband left the marital habitation. On March 28,1947, he filed his libel for absolute divorce on the ground of indignities. The master who heard the case recommended dismissal of the libel, exceptions to his report were dismissed by the court below and the husband took this appeal.

A divorce decree must be founded upon compelling, imperious reasons and upon evidence that is clear and convincing (Fawcett v. Fawcett, 159 Pa. Superior Ct. 185, 48 A. 2d 23)…
