This action was brought to procure a decree of divorce upon the ground of adultery. An answer was put in denying the cause of action set up in the complaint, and making countercharges. The issues thus formed were by consent of the parties referred to a referee, who made his report finding the defendant guilty of the charges contained in the complaint, and the plaintiff not guilty of the charges made in the answer. A judgment being entered upon, this report, an appeal therefrom was taken.
