•Tyson, C. J., and Denson, J.
(dissenting.) — -We hold the view that, as Mrs. Guice was entitled to the entire personal estate of her husband, sections 1506 and 1507 of the Code have no application, and, therefore, her quantum of dower interest is not, and cannot be, affected by them. Those sections only apply when the decedent leaves a child or children who “share” with the widoAv in the distribution of the husband’s personal estate.—Mueller v. Mueller, 127 Ala. 364, 365, 28 South. 465.
