€l)t Constitntioadist. 'AUGUSTA, O-A.: Friday Morning, October, 8, 1875. SUPREME COURT DECISIONS. Decisions Rendered in Atlanta, Ga., October 5, 1875. —Hon. Hiram Warner, Chief Justice—lions. L. E. Bleckley and James Jackson, Judges. [From the Atlaulu Constitution.] Abner P. Wimberly vs. Robt. S. Bryan. Assumpsit, from Talbot. WARNER, C. J. This was an action brought by the plaintiff against the defendant on a pro missory note for the sum of $3,000.00. The defendant pleaded to the plaintiff’s action, that said note was given in con sideration of a verbal agreement made by the plaintiff with the defendant for the sale of certain described lots of land, and was therefore void under the provisions of the 1950th section of the code. The defendant also pleaded, that at the time of the making of the alleged contract mentioned in plaintiff’s de claration, he agreed to pay $4,000.00 for the purchase of a tract of land, $1,000.00 in cash, and the balance of the pur chase money to one Lewis Wimberly upon a note made by plaintiff to said Lewis Wimberiy, then in the hands of Laura, the wife of plaintiff. The de fendant also pleaded, that at the time of the making the said supposed con tract, it was agreed between plaintiff and the defendant, and Lewis Wim berly, and Laura Bryan, the wife of plaintiff, that the defendant should pay the $1,000.00 in cash for the land to the plaintiff, and the balance to the said Lewis Wimberly, etc. The plaintiff de murred to the defendant’s pleas, the court sustained the demurrer, and the defendant excepted. The case was then tried on the evidence contained in the record, and the jury found a verdict lor the plaintiff. The defendant excepted to the charge of the court, which was iu substance as follows: That if the plaintiff agreed to sell the laud mentioned to defendant, and de fendant paid 81,000 of the purchase money, and agreed to pay 83,000 more, and if plaintiff put defendant iu pos session of the land, and he still retains possession of it, that then this was such a part performance of said con tract as took the same without the operatiou of the statute of frauds, al though said coutract was hot reduced to writing, and no memorandum in writing of the same was made and signed by the parties to be charged therewith, and the plaintiff would be entitled to recover the balance of the purchase money agreed to be paid for the land. There was no error in sus taining the demurrer to the second and fourth pleas of the defendant. It is not alleged in the pleas that Lewis Wim berly had such an interest iu the plain tiff's note us would entitle him to be paid the money due thereon, to the exclusion of the plaintiff’s right to collect and receive it. In other words, the pleas do not allege that Lewis Wimberly had such a vested interest in the $3,000 due on the note, by virtue of any valid contract made with the plaintiff, as would entitle him to re ceive it from the defendant, to the ex clusion of the plaintiff’s right to do so, if he thought proper to collect it in his own name, and to revoke any r authori ty given to Lewis Wimberly to receive it. In view of the evidence in the re cord, there was no error in the charge of the court to the jury. Let the judgment of the court below be affirmed. E. H. Worrill, M. H. Blandford, for plaintiff in error. Willis & Willis, H. L. Benning, for de fendant. Sarah M. Brown vs. Elizabeth Kim brough, administratrix. Equity, from Talbot. WARNER, C. J. This was a bill filed by the complain ant against the defendant, praying for a decree that certain described lands therein specified, might be turned over to her, and that the defendant account to her for the rents and profits thereof. On the tiial of the case the jury, un der the charge of the court, found a verdict in favor of the defendant. The case is brought here on a bill of excep tions to the rulings of the court below. The complainant claims title to the land in controversy, under a deed made by Wm. M. Brown, administrator of Shelton, to Jack Brown, trustee for complainant, Jack Brown being her husband. This deed is dated 2d Nov., 1858. It appears from the evidence iu the record that the complainant and her husband, Jack Brown, con veyed the land by deed on the 7th of May, 1861, to Kimbrough, the de fendant, for the consideration of $lB,- 000. The court charged the jury amongst other things, “If Jack Brown and his wife made and executed the deed in evidence purporting to be made by them to Kimbrough, such deed con veyed to Kimbrough all the interest which they or either of them had in the lands, and if such is the case, Kim brough is not liable to account to the complainant.” The complainant’s coun sel requested the court iu writing to charge the jury that “A married woman cannot by tne ordinary deed of convey ance dispose of her separate property, if the sale be of real estate; and ii Mrs. Brown, being a married woman, made the deed set out in defendant’s answer, then Kimbrough got no title to the same and no right by which he could hold the land in opposition to Mrs. Brown. This request to charge, the court refused. Whereupon the com plainant excepted to the charge as given to the jury, and to the refusal to charge as requested. But two ques tions were insisted on iu the argument here. First, as to the right of a mar ried woman to convey her separate estate iu land by the ordinary deed of conveyance. Second, if she can do so, then the deed must be executed as pro vided by the 2d section of the Act of 1760. Cobbs Digest 161. In our judg ment a married woman in this State, who has a separate estate in land, may dispose of the same by the ordinary deed of conveyance. Such a disposition of her real estate is a neces sary incident to her ownership of that species of property as well as of any other personal property, the more especially as real and personal property in this State, is placed on the same footing as to distribution. When the decisions referred to on the argument ■were made by this court in relation to the power of a femme covert to disposo of her separate estate iu personal property, there was one species personal property at that time which was con sidered much more important and val uable to the owners thereof, than real estate, and yet it was held that she could dispose of her separate estate in that} particular species of personal property. In this State we are unable to perceive any sound distinction in principle between her power of disposi tion of her separate estate in personal property and her separate estate in real property. In regard to the second ques tion insisted on by the plaintiff in error, the act of 1760 only applies to such con veyances of real estate by the husband of the femme covert as she has or may have an interest in, and not to convey ances of her separate property of which she is the sole oumer. If she joins her husband in a conveyance of his proper ty in which he has an interest as his wife by reason of that relation, then in £>rder to make her relinquishment of that right valid, it must be executed in accordance with the requirements of that act—and such was the ruling of this court in Seabrook vs. Brady, 47th Geo. Rep. 651. In that case. Mrs. Brady signed a relinquishment to land con veyed by the deed of her husband as his property to Dawsoo. The act of 1760 has no application to a convey ance made by el femme covert of her sep arate property as the absolute owner thereof, and was not intended to have any. We find no error in the rulings of the court as set forth in the bill of exceptions. Let the judgment of the court below be affirmed. Blandford & Garrard ; H. L. Ben ning ; McCay & Trippe, for plaintiff In error. Willis & Willis; E. H. Worrill, for defendant. Guild’s Signal. BY BRET HAUTE. I. Two low whistles, quaint and clear, That was the signal the engineer— That was the signal that Guild, ’tis said, Gave to his wife at Providence, As through the sleeping town, and thence Out in the night, On to the light, Down past the farms lying white he sped. 11. Asa husband’s greeting, scant no doubt, Yet to the woman looking out, Watching and waiting no serenade, Love song or midnight roundelay, Said what that whistle seemed to say: “ To my trust true, So love to you, Working or waiting, Good-night!” It said. hi. Brisk young bagmen,-tourists fine, Oid commuters along the line, Rrakemen and porters glanced ahead, Smiled as the signal, sharp, intense, Pierced through the shadows of- Providence “ Nothing amiss— Nothing—it is Only Guild calling his wife,” they said. IV. Summer and winter, the old refrain Liang o’er the billows of ripening grain, Pierced through the budding boughs o’erhead, Flew down the track where the red leaves burned, Like living coals from the engine spurned, Sang as it flew: “To our trust true. First of all Duty—Good-night,’’ it said, v. And then one night, it was heard no more, From Stonington o’er Rhode Island shore; And the folk in Providence smiled and said, As they turned in their beds: “ The engi neer Has once forgotten his midnight cheer.” One only knew— To his trust true, Guild lay under his engine—dead.
