AN IMPORTANT DEcIsIos.-ihe State SEQ
tine, contains the following statement OF the
decision of our Supreme Court, in the case
of Strong vs. Glen, decided on Tuesday last.
II arose under The statutes of 1882, abolish
la. dover aud substituting iee-slmple
estate in its steal:
Our readers will recollect that III the case
OF Ewing and NCe., deelaed yeac and a
half AGO. an abstract OF which was publish
eel at The time, the court decided that the
statute referred 10 operated "a present., and
not prospectively; and that inchoate rights
O: dover were abolished that is, rights OF
dover possessed by wives whose nus
bands were still living. The case now de-
cided, following the Ewing and Noel case,
makes practical application of the princi-
pie then determined
Othe points are decided la the case, but
the important one is this:
A husband had conveyed property before
the law Of 1852 came into force, his wife not
joining in the deed Subsequently to the
coming into force OF the statute, the hus-
band died. The wife now was the purchaser
of the land from the husband for one third
OF it in fee-simple. The court decided that
she could not recover the third in Zee sim
pie, because the entire fee was conveyed by
the deed of the husband under the law as il
stood at the time of the conveyance, and
that the Legislature had no power to deprive
the purchaser of any part OF that--that the
conveyance made was subject only to an in
choste right of dover; and, as the Legisla-
ture, under the decision in the Ewing and
Noel case had deprived the wife of that
had abolished that interest, nothing was left
to the wife, and hence she could recover
nothing
