Smith v. Smith

13 Mass. 231 | Mass. | 1816

The Court said, this had not been their practice; and, upon looking into the statute, ⁽¹⁾ they were satisfied they had no such authority under this * process. The libellant has the same rights as if her husband were naturally dead ; and she must pursue her remedy in the same manner.
