LAW INTELLIGENCE.,-(THIS DAY),"

COURT OF CHANCERY.
(Before Vice-Chancellor Sir R. Kinderaley.)
JUDGMENT.-ARCHER Y. KELLY.

The contention in this case arose under the marriage
settlement of Jane Ashley and Charles Harwood Archer,
dated Oct. 20,1845. Miss Ashley was entitled in expectancy
on the death of her father, then living, to £4,074 10s., 3 per
Cent. Consols. She was also entitled in remainder to a
third part of certain freehold estates which were settled in
trustees for the benefit of Henry Hickson and his children,
and on his death, without issue, in her favour. He died
without issue. Miss Ashley was also entitled to an
absolute interest in one third share of £2,000 3 per
Cent. Consols, and one third share of £7,833 3 per
per Cent. Consols, and a reversionary interest in 44,074 3
per Cent. Consols expectant on the death of her father; but
then it was made a covenant in the marriage settlement
that any property that Jane Ashley would become entitled
to during her coverture of the value of £5OO would be trans-
ferred by her to trustees in trust for the uses of the mar-
riage settlement.

His Honour the Vice-Chancellor was of opinion that the
freehold property which Miss Ashley, now Mrs. Archer,
became entitled to on the death of Henry Hickson, the
tenant for life, without issue, came under the trusts of the
marriage settlement. And with respect to the £ll,OOO 3
per Cent. Consols (in round numbers), if the marriage
settlement had contained a covenant that on the husband
becoming entitled, during marriage, to any property of the
value of £5OO, then he would convey it to trustees for the
trusts of the settlement, he would have become entitled to
that sum on his marriage with Jane Ashley; but Jane
Ashley on her marriage with Mr. Archer did not become
entitled to any sum whatever. The right to the £ll,OOO
3 per Cent. Consols before marriage continued and remained
in her after marriage the same as before. She did not
become entitled to any sum whatever on her marriage;
therefore, she was not liable to transfer any part of the
£ll,OOO 3 per Cent. Consols to trustees for the W3OB of the
marriage settlement.

His Honour declared accordingly, with costa.
