The defendant purchased the house and lot,, valued at about $1,400, in 1889. This was about one year after the death of her first husband, with whom she had previously lived on a farm. She occupied the premises with her two daughters until their marriage in 1891. From that time until March, 1898, she rented all but one room, which she occupied, and boarded with the tenants to whom she rented.
