Lead Opinion

The Court observed that a tenant in dower was not seised of an undivided third part; nor could the tenant in this case defend against this action, unless her dower had been legally assigned to her. — The pleadings were then withdrawn by consent, and the tenant was defaulted.

Mellen and Lyman for the demandant.

Holmes for the tenant.
