AlleN, J.,
concurring in result: I think the judgment of the Court, is correct, but I do not agree to the statement that the assent of the husband to the conveyance of the land of the wife “need not be by deed.” It is expressly held otherwise in Ferguson v. Kinsland, 93 N. C., 337 Jackson v. Beard, 162 N. C., 109; Warren v. Dail, 170 N. C., 406; Graves v. Johnson, 172 N. C., 178; Hensley v. Blankinship, 174 N. C., 760, and the cases cited in the opinion do not support the proposition, as none of them have any relation to a deed for land. The subject-*325matter of Jones v. Craigmiles was a note; of Jennings v. Hinton, an insurance policy; and of Brinkley v. Ballance, merchandise sold on a written order.
