Davey v. Turner

By the Court,

after advisement: These Deeds, and this mode of examination of Femes Covert on conveying their Estates, having generally prevailed in this Province, from its first settlement, and undergone from time to time the no*14tice of the Courts of Justice, it would be very mischievous now to overturn them. The maxim Communis Error facit Jus cannot operate more properly than in this Case; and the Court unanimously adjudge the Law to be with the Defendant.
