(dissenting): While this opinion is well written, I am constrained to withhold my concurrence in it for these reasons: The former action in Lyon county, between Minnie H. Leach and Louis B. Leach, did not dissolve the marriage relation. The parties remained husband and wife. The state has an interest in dower, as it does in homestead; either can be assigned or conveyed, but only in the manner provided by statute. Plaintiffs here were not parties to the antenuptial, or to the postnuptial, nor to the prior action, between Minnie H. Leach and Louis B. Leach. They are entitled to whatever rights naturally follow from those contracts and that decree, but have no standing to maintain an action to enforce an enlargement of them. The rights of the parties here to the Missouri land should be tried in Missouri. This action is an obvious attempt on the part of plaintiffs to evade the Missouri court, evidently fearful of the result there.
Appendix.
Findings op Fact.
1. Prior to June, 1911, Louis B. Leach was a widower, having his legal residence at Wamego, Pottawatomie county, Kansas. By a marriage with Ella Leamon he had a daughter, Virginia Leach. The wife of the said Louis B. Leach, by whom he had said daughter, had died leaving surviving her said husband and daughter. On June 26, 1911, at Kansas City, Kan., in contemplation of a second marriage with Minnie Humphrey,- then and previously a resident of Reading, Lyon county, Kansas, the said Louis B. Leach and the said Minnie Humphrey entered into a contract in consideration of their pro*104posed marriage. This contract was reduced to writing and signed by the said Louis B. Leach and the said Minnie H. Leach in the presence of the probate judge of Wyandotte county, Kansas. By their said marriage contract the parties agreed that each should own, hold and control their separate real and personal property “the same as either should or would if no marriage relation existed between them.” But provided that in case of the death of either the homestead occupied as a family residence should pass to the survivor. Bach of the parties agreed to sign any deed or other instrument of writing that might be necessary to the sale or conveyance by either of their separate property.
2. Immediately following the execution of the antenuptial agreement, described in finding number one, the said Louis B. Leach and Minnie Humphrey were married. After the marriage the parties took up their residence in Wamego, Pottawatomie county, Kansas, where they continued to live together as husband and wife until sometime in the fall of 1925. No children were born of this marriage. On or about November, 1925, said Louis B. Leach and Minnie Humphrey separated. She returning to her former place of residence in Reading, Lyon county, Kansas, and he remaining at the family home in Wamego.
3. On December 2, 1925, Minnie H. Leach, being the same person as Minnie Humphrey, who married Louis B. Leach in the circumstances above related, brought an action in this court against the said Louis B. Leach and secured personal service of summons upon him. In her petition she alleged, among other things, that her husband, the said Louis B. Leach, owned certain real estate in Jackson and Morgan counties, Missouri, giving a general description of such property. She further alleged acts of cruelty and mistreatment, and prayed for suit money, attorney fees, permanent alimony and an absolute divorce. For the purpose of giving this court jurisdiction of said action, the said Minnie H. Leach alleged her residence in the state of Kansas for more than ten years and her residence in Lyons county, Kansas, at the time of bringing such action in this court. She asked and obtained also a restraining order forbidding the said Louis B. Leach from transferring any of his real or personal property pending the determination of the action. This restraining order was personally served on Louis B. Leach. It was made returnable on December 15, 1925. Pending the hearing upon said matter, the said Minnie H. Leach, through her counsel, Wheeler, Brewster & Hunt, filed her motion reciting that the parties had reached an agreement settling their property rights, and asking that the case be set down for trial. This motion was granted and this action set for hearing on December 15, 1925.
4. Prior to December 15, 1925, the said Minnie H. Leach, plaintiff in the action brought by her in this court on December 2, 1925, and the defendant Louis B. Leach, entered into an agreement by which both parties intended to settle and finally conclude all matters of title, ownership, interest, contingent and inheritable rights of every kind and character in the property owned by each of them and to specifically set apart by legal description the real estate which then and thereafter should belong to each of said parties unencumbered of any claim of any kind or nature whatsoever of the other.
5. The agreement mentioned in finding number four was made whilst the *105action brought by the said Minnie H. Leach was pending in this court. Prior to the hearing on December 15, 1925, the terms and conditions of the agreement between said Minnie H. Leach and said Louis B. Leach were reduced to writing and signed by the said Louis B. Leach at Topeka, Kan. This written instrument was brought to Emporia, Kan., by counsel for the said Minnie H. Leach, where it was duly signed by her and acknowledged before the clerk of this court. It was introduced in evidence by both of the parties to the present action and appears as exhibit ten (10) of the evidence of the plaintiff.' Reference is hereby made to said original contract as a part of this finding.
6. On December 15, 1925, the cause of Minnie H. Leach and Louis B. Leach came on regularly for trial, the plaintiff in that action appeared in person and by her attorney S. M. Brewster, Esq. The defendant, Louis B. Leach, appeared by his attorney, D. R. Hite, and thereupon both of the parties announced themselves ready for trial. Counsel for the plaintiff then announced to the court that the plaintiff’s petition would be amended by striking out the prayer for an absolute divorce, so that said petition would ask for permanent alimony only. The court granted the request, and said petition was deemed to have been amended in accordance therewith. Thereupon, in open court, in the presence of the said Minnie H. Leach, her counsel stated that the parties had reached a final agreement settling the rights of each in the property of the other, and presented to the court the final agreement in writing, duly executed by the said Minnie H. Leach and the said Louis B. Leach, and requested the court to enter such judgment in the cause as might be proper and necessary to carry out and effectuate such agreement, if the said agreement should be approved by the court, and submitted said written instrument for the court’s consideration. Thereupon, the plaintiff in said action, Minnie H. Leach, was duly sworn, and gave her testimony in support of the allegations of her petition of cruelty and mistreatment by the said Louis B. Leach. In the course of her examination whilst upon the witness stand, the said Minnie H. Leach was asked by her counsel whether she was satisfied with the terms and conditions of the contract made with her husband Louis B. Leach, and referred to in finding number five. In answer to this question the said Minnie H. Leach stated that this contract did not give her a set of bedroom furniture and a victrola to which she was entitled. Thereupon, it was agreed, in open court, that the said Minnie H. Leach should have the bedroom set and victrola to which she referred. Thereupon the said Minnie H. Leach, whilst upon the witness stand, and in open court, stated that she was satisfied.
7. On December 15, 1925, responsive to the statements made to the court during the trial of the said action of Minnie H. Leach v. Louis B. Leach, and after hearing the evidence and examining said contract, referred to in finding number five, this court made and entered its final decree, a journal entiy of which having been reduced to writing by the parties through their counsel, was then approved in writing by counsel for each of the parties, and thereupon duly signed by the judge of this court and filed as a part of the record of the said action of Minnie H. Leach v. Louis B. Leach. Reference is made to said journal entry, introduced in evidence, as a part of this finding.
8. That whilst said journal entry was in course of preparation counsel for *106the said Louis B. Leach requested that a provision be inserted therein expressly barring the said Minnie H. Leach of any right or estate of dower in the property of Louis B. Leach. This request was granted by counsel for Mrs. Minnie H. Leach, and a provision, shown in said final decree barring said Minnie H. Leach of any interest or estate of dower, was inserted in the draft of said journal entry, which thereupon was approved in writing by Wheeler, Brewster & Hunt, through Mr. S. M. Brewster, as attorneys for the said Minnie H. Leach, and by H. D. Hite, as attorney for the said Louis B. Leach, and before said journal entry was signed by the judge of this court.
9. Louis B. Leach, the defendant in the action brought by Minnie H. Leach against him in this court, on December 2,1925, and referred to in these findings of fact, died intestate a resident of Wamego, Pottawatomie county, Kansas, on June 5, 1926. He left surviving him two grandchildren: Roderic Leach Fischer and Eleanor Ann Fischer, who are the minors in whose behalf the said Floyd E. Fischer brings this action. These grandchildren were bom of a marriage between Virginia Leach, the only daughter of Louis B. Leach by his first marriage, and Floyd E. Fischer. The said daughter, Virginia Leach, died in March, 1923, leaving as her only heirs at law her said husband and her two said children, grandchildren of the said Louis B. Leach. Prior to his death the said Louis B. Leach executed and delivered deeds containing covenants of warranty to his said grandchildren, thereby conveying to them the real estate described in plaintiff’s petition herein, which real estate is the same property described in the final decree of this court, as a part of the property set apart by said decree as the separate property of the said Louis B. Leach, free of any claims of any kind or character of the said Minnie H.'Leach. Said deeds were duly recorded in the offices of the recorder of deeds in Jackson and Morgan counties, Missouri. Both of said deeds were executed and delivered subsequent to the final decree of this court entered in the case of Minnie H. Leach v. Louis B. Leach.
10. The day following the death of the said Louis B. Leach, or soon thereafter, the said Minnie H. Leach went from her home in Reading, Kan., to Wamego, Kan., and entered and took possession of the family home in Wamego, occupied by the said Louis B. Leach in his lifetime, and on or about June 25, 1926, asserted in the probate court of Pottawatomie county, Kansas, in person and by attorneys, that she was entitled to said home; that she was an heir at law of the said Louis B. Leach, and as such entitled to a distributive share of his estate. These assertions of an interest in the property set apart by said final 'decree of December 15, 1925, to the said Louis B. Leach, were made in writing to the probate court of Pottawatomie county, Kansas, in an application for letters of administration and a motion asking to be declared an heir at law of the said Louis B. Leach. Upon a hearing in said probate court, at which the said Minnie. H. Leach and her counsel were present, it was found and adjudged that she was not an heir of the said Louis B. Leach, but was barred from any rights in his property, and was an unsuitable person to administer his estate.
.11. That early in July, 1926, shortly before this action was commenced, the *107said Minnie H. Leach employed I. N. Watson, Esq., an attorney at law residing in Kansas City, Mo., and practicing in the courts of that state, to bring' such legal proceedings in the courts of Missouri as in his opinion were proper or necessary to assert a claim that the said Minnie H. Leach as the surviving wife of the said Louis B. Leach, was entitled to a dower interest, or estate, in his real estate situated in Missouri, and particularly described in the petition, herein and in the final decrees of this court of December 15, 1925, entered in the case of Minnie H. Leach v. Louis B. Leach, and to assert, in the courts of that state, a right to a child’s share in the property of the said Louis B. Leach, situated in the state of Missouri.
12. This action was begun in this court on July 10, 1926, by filing the petition and causing a summons to issue for the said Minnie H. Leach. This summons was personally served upon Minnie H. Leach in Lyon county, Kansas. At the time the action was commenced, this court issued a restraining order pending the plaintiff’s application for a temporary injunction, which was set down for hearing on July 22, 1926, in this court. On that day the defendant, Minnie H. Leach, did not appear in person, but did appear by her counsel, Harris & Samuels, and the said I. N. Watson. The plaintiff caused a subpcena to issue for the said Minnie H. Leach, who appeared in person on the morning of July 23, 1926, to which time the hearing upon said application was adjourned. On July 23, 1926, by its interlocutory order, this court directed the said Minnie H. Leach to execute and deliver to the said minors certain deeds of release conveying to them any right of dower or other right she might claim in said Missouri real estate, and an assignment to the administrator of the estate of Louis B. Leach of any interest she had or claimed to have in any of the personal property of the said Louis B. Leach set apart to him under the final decree of this court of December 15, 1925. Pursuant to his order, the said deeds and assignment were executed by said Minnie H. Leach, and by order of this court directed to be deposited with its clerk to await the further orders of the court upon the final disposition of this cause. Said deed and assignment were signed and acknowledged by the said Minnie H. Leach under protest, she claiming and contending that said minors were not entitled to said property covered thereby unincumbered of her claim of dower therein.
13. Minnie H. Leach, the defendant herein, and plaintiff in the action brought by her against Louis B. Leach to which reference has been made, was paid $27,500 in cash by Louis B. Leach on January 9, 1926, pursuant to the judgment of this court of December 15, 1925, entered in the cause of Minnie H. Leach v. Louis B. Leach, which sum she has retained and has never offered to return. The said judgment and the contract referred to in finding number five were duly executed on his part by the said Louis B. Leach prior to his death, and the said Minnie H. Leach has received and is in the enjoyment of the said $27,500, and has been and is in the enjoyment of the real estate set apart to her in and by said final decree of December 15, 1925.
14. Upon the pleadings, evidence and admissions of counsel, introduced and made in open court in this action, and upon the record, proceedings and conduct of the parties in the case of Minnie H. Leach v. Louis B. Leach, as *108shown by the evidence, admissions and proceedings in this action, the court finds as a fact that the defendant herein, Minnie H. Leach, plaintiff in the action brought by her against her husband, Louis B. Leach, in this court, intended to and did, for valuable consideration which she duly received and still retains, voluntarily release any inchoate right of dower, and all rights, title or interest conferred upon her by the laws of the state of Missouri, as the wife of the said Louis B. Leach, in respect of real and personal property acquired and owned by her husband, Louis B. Leach, and particularly described as his property in said final decree of this court, entered on December 15, 1925, and situated in or under the jurisdiction of the state of Missouri. The court further finds that the attempts, threats and intent of the said Minnie H. Leach, as shown by her pleading in this action and by her conduct and the evidence herein, are, and since her husband’s death have been, to resort to the courts of Missouri for the express purpose of avoiding said voluntary release of such rights of dower and other rights respecting said property in said state of Missouri; that said attempts and threats were made and are now made in bad faith, and with a design to perpetrate a fraud upon the said minor grandchildren of the said Louis B. Leach, as his grantees and heirs at law, and to perpetrate a fraud upon and evade the effect of the decision and and judgment of this court, entered at her request and approved in writing by her duly authorized attorneys of record in the said action brought by her in this court against her husband, Louis B. Leach; and that the defendant is not in good faith in the employment of counsel to bring actions in foreign states to accomplish or attempt to accomplish such design.
15. Both the said Minnie H. Leach and the said Louis B. Leach were residents of Kansas at, before and after the beginning of the action by her against him. This court in said action has jurisdiction of the persons of the parties thereto, and its judgment, finally settling and determining their respective rights in the real and personal property then owned by them and each of them, was made and entered at their express request through their respective counsel, to carry out and effectuate their voluntary agreement.
16. This court has jurisdiction of the persons of the parties to this action, and finds as a fact that the plaintiff, as guardian of the said minor heirs, brings this action in their behalf to enforce the judgment of this court of December 15, 1925, referred to in .the foregoing finding.
17. The court finds generally that the allegations of plaintiff’s petition are true.
Conclusions op Law.

2. The defendant should be permanently enjoined from asserting in the courts of Missouri, or in any of the tribunals of that state, or in any other place, any right of dower, or any other right or interest, in or to, about or concerning, the real estate described in plaintiff’s petition herein, and from *109interfering in any manner whatever with the title, ownership, possession and enjoyment of such property by the plaintiff as guardian of said minors. Such permanent injunction should apply to and include any and all attorneys, agents and servants of the defendant, and should restrain her from setting up any right of dower, or any other interest of any kind or character whatsoever, in, to, about and concerning any personal property within the jurisdiction, or claimed to be within the jurisdiction, of the state of Missouri which was owned by Louis B. Leach at the time of his death, and which had been set apart to him by the decree of this court December 15, 1925, more particularly described in the findings of fact herein.
3. The plaintiff, as guardian of said minors, is entitled to have delivered to him by the clerk of this court, the instruments of conveyance of dower interest and of assignment made and acknowledged by the defendant pursuant to the interlocutory order of this court made and entered on July 23, 1926; and an injunction should issue permanently restraining the defendant with interfering with the recordation of said instrument in the proper public offices in the state of Missouri, and from attempting, directly or indirectly, to bring any action in any court or tribunal in the state of Missouri or elsewhere, setting up or claiming any right, title or interest, dower or otherwise, in, to, about and concerning any of the property described in said deeds, or described in said assignment. This injunction should apply to and include the attorneys, agents and servants of the defendant, and all persons acting for her or in her behalf, and extend to and include her heirs, personal representatives and assigns.
4. The costs of this action to be taxed should be paid by the defendant.
