[410] Act of Feb. 22, 1833: Chase, Stat., III, 1934.
[411] Act of March 11, 1853: Swan, Stat. of Ohio (1854), 324-28. But the provision regarding sentence and imprisonment is differently worded. At present (Bates, Ann. Rev. Stat. (1900), II, 2948) the paragraph reads: "The imprisonment of either party in a penitentiary under sentence thereto; but the petition for divorce under this clause shall be filed during the imprisonment of the adverse party."
[412] For the present law of Ohio see Bates, Ann. Rev. Stat. (1897), II, 2804-10. Cf. Wright, Report, 106. Jurisdiction is still vested in the courts of common pleas, although in certain counties the probate courts have cognizance: Bates, op. cit., II, 2804.
