SHE CONSENTED OR NOT; AND
THE TITLE VESTED IN THE

The point decided appears from the
opinion of the court.
The court says:
The question, therefore, is what effect
on the title had the acceptance of the
deed by the husband, whether the wife
essenteo to 1t or not? III the American

,nentary and have often been enforced
ny The courts. The substance Of ap-
Peliahts case is that Charles Jones
did not Intend the title to vest In his
wife beyond his control: that for this
reason he did not have the deed re-
corded; and that he supposed that

not IN noeTance. Where was it, then,
unless 1t passed under the deed and to
the grantee in IL. Martha Ann Jones?
