omitted an immaterial clause relating /
10 separate property Of deceased set I
apart as a homestead.
This legislation is in accordance with |
experience Of the Circuit Judges, some |
Of whom have expressed a desire that
this act be enacted. II will enable
them to provide for the families Of de-
ceased persons, whereas now at the
time Of greatest need the judges are
not empowered to allow a widow with
children to support to occupy the
family homestead. This has worked
hardship in the past. Judge Robinson
names one case In particular, where an
act was much needed.
We believe this is a very good law.
We recommend that the law may be
passed.
Respectfully submitted,
w. c. ACHI. Chairman,
c. II. DICKEY,
JOHN G. LANE.
