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."
