exIn the Court Of Appeals at Louis
vile, the important decision has recently
been made that'a husband cannot control
or open his wife's private correspondence.
After saying that any interference with a
w.fc'- confidential corrc- pondence would
impair social confidence and disturb do
nestle peace. and that a confding wife
would never Withhold from a true hus,
band her confidential letters without good
and sufficient reason, the Judge concludes:
'The existing code both of British and
American law recognizes the personal in
dividuality and moral responsibility OF
wives, and consequently guarantees their
freedom Of thought and interchange of
sentiment. Their ideas are their own
Their emotions their own, and their af>
fections their own. Here and now a
husband must not be tyrant, and ought
not to he a spy on his wife, who is neilh-
er his slave nor his mistress but should
always be his free and equal companion.
