    Gibson v. Gibson.
    
      Butz, Rupp & Welty, for libellant.
    June 16, 1930.
   Reno, P. J.,

When we read the testimony it seemed probable that the respondent had not attained the age of twenty-one when the libel was filed. At least, the record did not affirmatively show that she was then an adult. Upon our request, the master made a supplementary investigation and ascertained that respondent was born June 22, 1909. Hence, on March 4, 1930, when the libel was filed, respondent was less than twenty-one years old. No guardian ad litem was appointed for respondent at any stage of the proceedings. For that reason the record will not support a decree. It is a fair question whether, apart from this defect, the record shows a case of merit.

Now, June 16, 1930, decree refused and the libel is dismissed, without prejudice to right of libellant to institute another suit for the same cause of action.
