Most of the divorce cases now being commenced in the circuit court seem to come from Ypsilanti. The marriage returns recently have not exceeded them in number, all of which does not speak in the most glowing terms of matrimonial felicity in that part of the county, although it is an undoubted fact that there are many happy homes there. Mrs. Evaline Doyle, of Ypsilanti township, has commenced suit for a divorce from her husband John Doyle. She charges that her husband has not furnished her an adequate maintenance or home and that he was addicted to the excessive use of liquor. She claims that her father has aided her by presents amounting to $900 and that she has for the past two years resided at home with her father, Doyle making his headquarters there. She says that she mortgaged a house she owned in Belleville to assist her husband in business and lost the house on the mortgage. They were married on January 16, 1869 and have two children, a daughter of 18 and a son of 13. Mrs. Doyle asked for the guardianship of her son and a temporary injunction has been issued restraining the father with interfering with her guardianship until further order of the court.
