GAMMA CK, Justice'.'

This is an appeal from a judgment annulling the marriage of James Thompson Prothro, Jr., and Ann Gorin-Prothro, performed in 19’50, on the grounds of .fraud, misrepresentation and 'deceit on the part of Mr. Prothro. In urging reversal Mr. Pro-thro argues that the annulment of ,a marriage is an action for a personal judgment, and the court should have refused'to entertain the action since he was neither per-' sonally served within the territorial limits of .the court’s jurisdiction nor was his appearance entered "in the action. We think' his position is well taken. '
