1Opinion of the Court
WOLCOTT, Chief Justice:
This is an appeal from an award of alimony and counsel fees by the Superior Court in an uncontested divorce action in which the ground for divorce asserted was incompatibility under 13 Del.C. § 1522(12). While the wife, the appellee, did not contest the divorce, she nevertheless complied with the provisions of 13 Del.C. § 1537(a) by putting in issue her dependency upon the husband, the appellant.
A decree nisi was entered which ultimately was made final and, thereafter, a hearing was held on the question of alimony and counsel fees, and an award was made to the wife.
