¶1This is a divorce action. The charge made in the complaint is that of cruelty. The defendant answered and also filed the cross-complaint in which counter charges were made. The trial resulted in findings of fact, conclusions of law, and a decree granting a divorce to the plaintiff, awarding her the custody of the children, dividing the property, and fixing the alimony. The defendant appeals.
¶2The parties were married on December 10, 1903; and, as the issue of the marriage, there were living, at the time of the trial, four children, aged respectively fourteen, ten, eight and six years. The first point made upon the appeal is that the court, in granting the divorce to the respondent, disregarded the weight of the testimony.' The evidence was oral upon the charges of the respondent in her complaint and the *565counter charges of the defendant in his cross-complaint. The trial court sustained, in the findings of fact, the charges of the respondent and found against the charges of the appellant. After reviewing the evidence, we are of the opinion that the findings of the trial court should not he disturbed.
¶3By the second assignment of error, it is claimed that the trial court made an unequal and unjust distribution of the property. • To the respondent, was awarded the home in Seattle, valued at approximately twenty-five hundred dollars, and mortgaged for eight hundred dollars : an insurance policy which would mature in June, 1922, and after deducting the money borrowed thereon, would probably at that time have a value of three or four thousand dollars, and also allowed the respondent for the maintenance and support of herself and the children the sum of twenty dollars per week. To the appellant, was awarded certain mining claims in Yukon territory, which were equipped as a going hydraulic mining proposition, and out of which the appellant realized approximately three thousand dollars per year. As already stated, the custody of the children was awarded to the wife and she has the burden of caring for and supporting them. There is no basis for the claim that there was given to the respondent a greater amount of the property than was just and equitable.
¶4The judgment will be affirmed.
