PARTIES To ACTIONS.
In z go, Code 1871, strike out the clause
And in case where the assignment is not in
writing. and the original payee is dead, and
there is executor or administrator of the es-
tate suit may be brought in the name of the
assignee" Z 1907. This change results from
following the text of the Code of 1851
'An unmarried female may prosecute an ac-
ton for her own seduction, and recover such
damages may be found in her favor. 1913.
a father, or in case of his death or desertion
of his family, the mother may bring action
for the seduction of a daughter, although such
daughter be not living with nor in the service
of the plaintiff, and though there be no loss of
service; but recovery by the father, mother
daughter shall bar any other action for the
same cause" Z 1914. These sections abolish
a harsh rule of the common law, that was
always unreasonable, and one certsinly not
in keeping with our civilization.
'In actions against partners, some of whom
are non-residents of this State, or can not be
found, service of process on such partners as
may be found in this State shall be sufiient
to maintain the suit against all the partners,
so as to bind the assets of the partnership, and
of the individuals summoned" 1919
Executors, administrators and guardians
appointed in this State and residing out of it,
may be sued in the county of their appoint
ment. Notice to be given by publication
. 1920.
Actions by or against public officers in their
official character, or by or against trustees or
in reference TO the trust, shall
not abate by the death of the officer, trustee or
commissioner, but may be revived in the name
of the successor. I 1921.
