    Elsie Buchan, Appellee, v. Collin Buchan, Appellant.
    (Not to he reported in full.)
    Abstract of the Decision.
    1. Equity, § 425
      
      —when conclusions of master advisory only. In matters other than stating an account, a master in chancery’s conclusions are simply advisory and only prima facie correct, and the court may modify or reject the report if it is erroneous, defective or against the weight of evidence.
    2. Husband and wife, § 264*—when evidence sufficient to show that separation is fault of wife. Evidence in a suit for separate maintenance, showing among other things that the complainant attended dances and associated against her husband’s wishes with persons of questionable character, held to show that the separation was the fault of the complainant.
    
      Appeal from the Circuit Court of Champaign county; the Hon. Fbanklin H. Boggs, Judge, presiding. Heard in this court at the October term, 1915. Certiorari denied by Supreme Court (making opinion final).
    Reversed and remanded with directions.
    Opinion filed April 21, 1916.

   Mr. Justice Thompson

delivered the opinion of the court.

3. Husband and wife, § 264*—when evidence insufficient to show that offer of wife to live with husband made in good faith. In a suit for separate maintenance where, after leaving her husband without due cause, the complainant, two days before filing her bill, and after having consulted with her attorney in regard to bringing suit, went to her husband’s house in company with a person whom her husband had objected to her associating with and offered to live with him if he would do what was right, meaning thereby to be allowed to do things which her husband justifiedly objected to, held insufficient to sustain a finding that such offer was not made in good faith, and a decree in her favor should be reversed.
