Analysis

No analysis yet. When one exists it is a model's reading of this opinion — the rulings it reviewed, whether it agrees with the court, and the authorities it checked — shown beside the court's own disposition, never in place of it. How analyses are made.

Opinion — Heydenfeldt

Heydenfeldt, J., delivered the opinion of the Court.

Murray, C. J., concurred.

That a feme covert has no power to make a contract is a doctrine of the law which this Court has no power to disturb. Like every general rule, it has its exceptions; but they are well defined, and this case is not one of them.

Judgment affirmed,
