Haack v. Weicken

Brady, J.:

I concur, as the authorities seem to force the result declared, although I do not understand why the plaintiff’s land should be lost by her acceptance of the provisions in lieu of dower, when there is nothing in the will which declares that it was thus intended by the testator to extinguish all other personal claims against the estate. She was entitled to dower by law.

Judgment affirmed, without costs.
