Opinion

majority opinion

The Court (Dana, C. J., Sedgwick, and Sewall, justices,) held that the order had been substantially complied with. They said it was usual, however, to publish with an interval of a week, but that it was not strictly necessary. The publication has been made in three successive weeks, which is sufficient. The husband was called, and did not appear; and the prayer of the petition was granted.
