Bertha A. Carroll of Ann Arbor, filed a bill Tuesday asking for divorce from her husband, Arthur Carroll, on the ground of non-support.

She alleges she was married to the defendant on the 15th day of June, 1893, at Sandwich, Canada, and they lived together until Nov. 29th, 1899, when she left him for the reason before it stated. There are two children, Gracia Carroll, aged 6 years, and Richard Carroll, aged 3 years. The wife alleges that after the first six months of their married life the defendant did nothing toward her support and she was forced to take her then small child and go to her mother's home in the township of York until said child was old enough to be left with others, since which time she has supported herself. The mother asks for the custody of the children until they are 14  years of age.
