1 later decision quote this exact passage““The evidence of both the plaintiff and defendant disclosed that they were duly married. Whether either is entitled to have the marriage annuled is a matter that may be adjudicated in the main action. It is not before the trial court in this merely ancillary proceeding and hence is not before us in this appeal.” Pry v. Pry (1947), 225 Ind. 458 , 75 N. E. 2d 909 .”
