Excerpt from The Encyclopedia Britannica, Vol. 14: A Dictionary of Arts, Sciences, Literature, and General Information; Husband to Italic The application of these principles with reference to the property of the wife, and her capacity to contract, may now be briefly traced.

If the wife had been in actual possession at any time during the marriage of an estate of inheritance, and if there had been a child of the marriage capable -oi inheriting, then the husband became entitled on his wife's death to hold the estate for his own life as tenantby the curtesy of England Beyond this, however, the husband's rights did not extend, and the wife's heir at last succeeded to the inheritance. The wife could not part with her real estate without the concur rence of the husband; and even so she must be examined apart from her husband, to ascertain whether she freely and voluntarily consented to the deed..
