FRANK D. CRUIKSHANK, petitioner-appellant, v. LAURA COCHRAN CRUIKSHANK,defendant-respondent.

Drunkenness and vile language without more do not constitute extreme cruelty. They must be foreborne by the husband when exhibited by the wife, under that part of the marriage contract which reads "for better or for worse."

PER CURIAM.

The decree appealed from will be affirmed, for the reasons expressed in the opinion delivered by Advisory Master Matthews in the court of chancery.

For affirmance — THE CHIEF-JUSTICE, TRENCHARD, PARKER, LLOYD, CASE, BODINE, DONGES, HEHER, PERSKIE, KAYS, HETFIELD, DEAR, WELLS, DILL, JJ. 14.

For reversal — None.
