RUTLEDGE, Associate Justice.

The plaintiff, appellant here, sued to annul his marriage to defendant, asserting that she was incompetent to enter the marital relation. The basis for the claim is the alleged invalidity of a Tennessee divorce, which she secured three days before the marriage, from Mr. Gardner, a former husband who remains living at the present time. By cross bill Mrs. Saul sought separate maintenance for herself and their adopted infant son and the custody of the child. The decree was in her favor as to annulment, maintenance and custody of the son.
