Woman When Marrying May
Take Any Name She Pleases

Hartford, Conn, Feb. 17-Elsie Hill.
who recently married Prof. I.eayitt.
was so well known in Connecticut as
a suffragist leader and worker that
the announcement that she would re-
tain her maiden name though mar
ried attracted state wide attention.
1t set lawyers and others at work
reading statutes old and new to see IL
there was anything in them which
would prevent Elsie Hill from using
in Connecticut her maiden name
though married.
The best legal opinion in default of
an actual court decision is that a
woman may take any name she
chooses provided there is no intent
to defraud.
There are no written words which
requires woman in Connecticut to
take her husbands name after mar
riage. Lawyers, however, say that II
will have to be determined if a mar
ried woman retaining her maiden
name can vote unoer the maiden
name or obtain passport from the
government.
