Status of Married Women Under Georgia Lao
BY Ee 7. WILLIAMS.

, port and the commissioners may set aside
| the whole estate to her II they deem her
social conditions and manner OF living
demand Il; or she may take dover of
one-third of all the real property OF which
the husband dies possessed.
When the husband has property and be-
comes in debt even If he refuses. she may
apply for and get homestead out OF his
! property, which will shield her and her
little ones from the storms Of life in
a home which Is not subject to his debts
and on which he can never lay his hands
to dispose OF It. Though the husband has
! been greatly reduced in his high preroga-
tive, he is still, as Judge Bleckley face
tiously observed presumed to be" the
| head of the family, and he may wear that
garment stiH of which he boasts and
which is so becoming to most men of my
acquaintance.
| When the husband IS killed by accident
she has a property right in his life. and
she may sue and recover for his homicide,
and such recovery is not subject to the
/ claims of his creditors.
Again, sometimes, but not often, hus-
band is mean and penurious and shuts of
articles so necessary to the wife's COM
fort, but she may get the "necessaries,' -
charge them to the old "skinfint" and
make him pay the bill. And II were on
a jury I would hold him responsible for
all beautiful and dainty things. from
spring hats as large as flower garden
to laces and dainty lingerie. especially II
the wife was a beautiful and dainty wo-
man. Such a woman requires not bread
and meat, but the sweet and nice things
so congenial to her nature, and without
which life would become a burden.
So we see, under Georgia law, married
women have been placed in the high and
dignifed position of individuals, and are
not mere chattels of the husband.
The science OF law is replete with wis
dom and has for it's object the protection
of the weak against the strong, and in no
branch of its humane provisions has II
made more progress than in its tender
care and protection of married women.
Its great, strong arm has been placed
around them. and with the chivalry of a
knight of old it has not only provided
that all communications between husband
and wife are sacred and are excluded
from the gaze Of court and jury, but IT
has provided for married women in the
protection Of her property with the tender
ness of a mother and the consideration Of
an affectionate father.
The law is not second to the church in
fixing the status OF woman, and the pro-
gress of both may be judged by the esu-
mate they place on married women.

The classification under the common
law, "Lunatics, idiots and married wo-
men" We are glad to say, does not now
exist under the laws of Georgia. The
law has grown and expanded with our
Christian civilization, and one test of
growth with all institutions is to be meas
ured by the treatment OF all women, but
especially of married women, for they
are truly the very pillars of the state, and
deserve the homage of every good and
brave man the world over.
The property of a married woman before
the act of 1866 became the husbands at
marriage, now. however, a married wo-
man retains title to her property when
she marries. She is 'feme sole" as 10
her separate estate, and she May eNer-
else ownership over II and even. prosecute
a business of her own.
Not only is this true, but married wo-
man cannot bind her property for the
debts of her husband. Even If the hus-
band and his creditors collide and obtain
a mortgage on her property to pay his
debts 1t is absolutely void. Nor can sne
endorse and bind herself by such endorse
ment.
The laws Of Georgia have gone to the
extent of zealously guarding the rights OF
a married woman. She cannot even sell
her property to her husband without an
In criminal cases she is not permitted
TO testify for or against her husband,
except when he commits an assault or fei-
ony upon her. Then her mouth is no long
er sealed; but she may uncover his in
fanny and hold him up to the scorn OF
public opinion which usually does full JUS
tice in fixing his moral status and in
vindication of her own.
In divorce cases the law shows its con-
sideration and tenderness, for where chill
dren are of tender years, the mother I'M
less proved to be of bad character and UNI
fit is awarded the custody of the children.
It will not take from her what is so pc
culiarly and sacredly her own. In cases
of separation and divorce the wife may
get a considerable sum as alimony when
the husband is a man of means. In most
cases she is entitled to a support If the
husband is earning It.
We believe there Is but one injustice
that might be remedied, and that is in re-
spect to the wife's earnings, which are
the husbands.
When the husband dies the law makes
the most liberal provision for the wife.
She can take child's part If there are
children, and one-hfth If there are more
than five; or she can take a years sup
