How Marriage In Pennsylvania Re-
vokes a Will.

Some very hard cases have arisen
under our law in regard TO this sub
iect, A man about to marry has
made his will III favor Of his intend
cd wife, and woman about to mar
ry has made her will in favor OF her
intended husband, and 10 both eases
the Wills have been revoked by tho
marriage. 1t has happened more
than ouce that purchasers who
bought from the devisees or legateos
under a will have found they had
failed to get title to tho whole
property on account Of an after
born child Of the testator. II is i'm
portaut, therefore, that the following
summary Of the law by tho late
Chief Justice Heed sbould be kept
in mind
1. The will of a single woman is
revoked by her subsequent marriage,
aud is not revived by tho death Of
her husband.
2. II a man makes his will and
marries aud dies leaving widow,
40 far as regards the widow he dies
intestate that is, bis will is 70
voked protauto (or in that respecO
3. lfa man makes his will and
has an after born child or children
not provided for in said will, and
dies leaving such after born child o,
children he dies intestate, as his will
is revoked proianto.
4 II a man makes his will and
marries, aud dies leaving a widow
aud child not provided for in suct
will, his will ia revoked absolutely
rs at common law, but only protan.
| to.
8. If a man mako his will anC
marries and dies, and leaves a wild
ow, but no known heirs or kind
red, it is clearly revoked, so far a
to give to his widow both the reu
aud personal estate absolutely.
The law refuses to admit that
man can intend to dsinherit hi
children unless he shows that in
tention by will made after the.
are born.
