The sole question is upon the writ. Where a feme sole executrix or administratrix, jointly with one or more persons, and afterwards intermarries, her power and authority is, by the statute of 1783, c. 24, § 19, extinguished and determined. But here the wife was sole administratrix ; and hv the marriage the husband became joint administrator with her.
