    HARRIET RICHARDS v. JOHN D. RICHARDS.
    Divorce — adultery—name of the adulterer — leave to amend.
    In a bill for divorce for adultery, the name of the person with whom committed must be stated if known.
    Divoece. Causes alleged, “extreme cruelty, adultery with another woman, desertion, and confinement in the penitentiary of Pennsylvania for infracting criminal laws.”
    
      Counsel. We will only offer proof as to the charge of adultery.
   COURT.

'Do you propose to offer proof upon all these charges?

COURT. You can introduce no evidence as to that charge under this petition. It has been the uniform practice to require the name of the person with whom adultery is charged to be set out if known, or if unknown to allege that excuse.

The complainant then asked and obtained leave to amend her bill and the cause was continued.
