 David M Sage and wife, of Leb- e anon, H., were killed in storm four years ago. In a suit for set clement of the estate of $10,000, the question arose which had died first
 If Sage, then his wife's relatives would be entitled to her award, con- sisting of dover and homestead. If his wife died first, then her relatives - would be entitled to nothing. There was no way of proving which died D first, and the court held that, since woman is weaker than man, Mrs Sage must have died first.
