1. Complainant, in order to sustain her cause of action for maintenance brought under section 26 of the Divorce act, must, since she separated herself from the defendant husband, show that she had justifiable cause for leaving him, so as to make her leaving abandonment by him as a matter of law.
2. The law of this state requires that the effort made by the husband to secure his wife's return be sincere and made in good faith.
3. Held, complainant has made out a sufficient case as to the acts of cruelty charged by her and the necessity for her leaving her husband.
4. This being a maintenance action, and not an action for divorce, corroboration of the complainant's testimony is not necessary and the relief can be granted on the testimony of the complainant alone if there be credible and satisfactory testimony.
