Note 243 — OF MARRIAGE.
Reading edition
This case was cited in argument in Manby v. Scott. Siderf. p. 112. but it was allowed that the older writers Bracton, l. 5. 421. and Fleta, 434, 58, had held the contrary, and so does the law of the present day. See Co. Litt. 30. 80: Brouwer de jure Connubiorum.
