Ilcfore the \'ice.(lliaiicelloi' Emily
Murphy vs., Mattllcw William Mur- phy and otlicrs.
This is it suit brought by thc wid-
ow of the late Joseph Murphy for her dower or thirds in 57 acre.~= of land at China Point and for one third of the rents and profits from the time of her husbnnd's death.
The defendants were the surviving
brothers and sisters of the deceased, all of whom with the exception of Matthew William Murphy, 'left the widow to the proof oi her suit. He denied her right to dower and dam- ages.
The defendant, Matthew Wm. Mur-
phy's main contentions were that a certain document of the 19th July, 1881. was only an execiitory agree- ment and did not operate as a con- veyance in fee to the husband of the widow and second that treating it as an executory agreement the wid- ow had no dower in equity under it.
The Court held that the document
referred to was n conveyance in fee and vested the inheritance in the husband at the time of its execution subject to the maintenance of his patents and to the payment of cer- tain other charges therein mention- ed, and that the widow was entitled under the common law to her dower tlierein. The court further held, tak- ing the document as an executorv agreement only that the deceased died beneficially entitled under it to an equitable estate of inheritance in possession out of which under the dower in equity act the widow was entitled. to dower. The court further held that under the conveyances ex- isting between the husband and the defendant, Matthew William Murphy, the defendant was estopped from dis- puting the widow's claim for dower in this case. .
The decree was made for dower ac-
cordingly which Master Gaudet was ordered Ito allot and sci; out and that he take 'accounts for six years previous to the iyling of the hill of the rents and profits, one-third where- of being ordered to be paid to the widow. The costs were ordered to be paid hy Matthew William Murphy.

day the vessel wus, noticed flying sig- nals of distress and word was sent to the Marine Department here who ordered the lifeboat out to her us- sistance. In tow of the tug l<‘. Batt the lifeboat left this port about 'four o’cloek yesterday afternoon and when the two arrived there on their errund of mercy the tide was lo\v und the vessel’s keel was being luppi-d in about one foot of water. 'l`hc tin: could not get uuyivhere near 'the Iiochiel and the vessel- was too lmrd laground for any attempt :it floating 'tlien. The Ifutt and the lifcbout and its crew returned to this port about six-thirty last evening. It is thought that the vessel will float at high tide or nt least can be floated at that time. 'l'he lifeboat crew, under (‘ap- taiu Moore, made a remark1iblyrj.liick response to the call for aid and were at the Boat house and had their bout launched in a very brief space of time. The men had a good deal of hand rowing to do, but_worked \vitli a will which would do credit to the famed lifeboat crews of the English coast whose only calling is rescue work. The captain has his crew working together now to a uicety and both captain and crew deserve credit for th-cir ready response to a call and eagerness to assist. 'l`hc Lochiel is rather badly strained and is in a ratlier precarious position; her bilge admitting water makes the dim- ger from fire by spontaneous combus- tion, owing to the nature of her car- go, very probable. .
