1. Cruel treatment as ground for divorce “is the wilful infliction of pain, bodily or mental, upon the complaining party, such as reasonably justifies an apprehension of danger to life, limb, or health.” Ring v. Ring, 118 Ga. 183 (44 S. E. 861, 62 L. R. A. 878) ; *106Brown v. Brown, 129 Ga. 246 (58 S. E. 825) ; Stoner v. Stoner, 134 Ga. 368 (67 S. E. 1030) ; Adams v. Adams, 195 Ga. 479 (24 S. E. 2d, 683).
No. 14682. November 11, 1943.2. In the instant ease the petition contained sufficient allegations to show cruel treatment within the foregoing principle. Accordingly it was not error to overrule the general demurrer. Alford v. Alford, 189 Ga. 630 (1, 2) (7 S. E. 2d, 278) ; Cohen v. Cohen, 194 Ga. 573 (22 S. E. 2d, 132) ; Allen v.

Judgment affirmed.
