Mr.. E. F. SPINNER in late exchange tells how
he first became interested in the movement for the
advancement of woman. He says: In my native
State Of New York, by statute of State, the COM
mon law of England was made the law of that
State By this law married woman had no rights
whatever; she was just as much chattel belong
ING to her husband as was his horse. Her state
was one of absolute passive obedience to his will.
If she had property at the time of marriage, it
Immediately became the property OF her husband,
and he could dispose Of entirely for his own per-
sonal benefit. If she put in word of remon-
STRANGE be had the right to correct her by corporal
punishment Compare the laws as they then
stood with the laws Of New York as they are in
terpreted to-day, and answer the question, What
has been gained by the jealous few who bravely
began and continued this work. To-day she can
have and hold property in her own right can
establish and carry on business in her own name,
independent Of and absolutely free Of her hus-
Woman's chronicle. (Little Rock, Ark.) 1888-1???, 1890-06-14

In Louisiana it is said to be the custom to place
the letter V before the Christian name of the de-
parted husband when one becomes widow. The
wife of the late Confederate president has adopted
the custom and signs herselpv. Jefferson Davis
This letter is used as an abbrevaton Of the French
word "Veuve," meaning widow.
