li5 Jehu VI Orr, Of Leesburg, 10 reviewing
decision Of Judge Djckcrsau, 10 which that
Judge held hat the statutory provision for o
waiver Of Homestead, contained ia the Code OF
Virginia Of 1873, was unconstitutional aud
void, says:
This decsicn is startling, conflicting as it
,cs With the general opiniao AID practice OF
ity CT this Statutory Tsiver The waiver IS
Incorporated into 81! wfi.tco obligations for the

AID is basis at credit. Ii the decision b.
right, creditors shoud be put 90 their guard
agaiost rcEying 90 tie waiver end those utter
esed 10 the 'homcsrcad' should be cautloued
against a surrender OF their rights. Whether
tbs decision be good law Or not must depend
on the character Of the Interest which the
'flwi'y' or The debtor bias under tic provisions
Of the constitution creating the homestead. II
the right to horocs'ead exemption be only a
privilege wholly personal to the head Of the
isaly, of which be may avail himself, or DOT,
at will, While the family take uuthirg by the
constitutional prrvlson, except the chaoce Of
beiog pr5teced, if the head chooses TO exercise
his privilege By claiming his homestead, aud
by holding the property exempted, tben the
decsioo is wrong For if the debtor be the
only one 90 whom the ccnsttu'ioo inteods to
couirr the beoe6t, with The op'ion 10 him TO
avail huscIt Of it or cot, the provision FIR
waiver is a1cllary for this right Instead of
iupairiUg or defeating the beue6t 10 him But
if he family take auy constitutional rights
inde pcudcut of AID paramount to the will of
their head then, clearly, aoy act would be
unconstitutional AID 10 violation Of tho prohi
bitoo in the 5h section of article XII, if ii
authorized the head Of family to Valve their
right, and thus to drfeat CT impair the beoe6,s
iD!ended to be confe.rad 90 them. The de-
csion leads to 90 itqury toto aud necessitates
a consideration Of the vital eleuents OF the con-
stluiinnal rrovisons fur a homestead.
