Opinion of the Court

Clark, J.

A divorce will not be decreed for a cause which arose out of the state at a time when the libellant did not reside here. The alleged cause of divorce arose out of the state when neither of the parties had a domicile in the state, and the court has no jurisdiction of the cause. Foss v. Foss, 58 N. H. 283, and cases cited.

Libel dismissed.

Smith, J., did not sit: the others concurred.
