Doe Ex Dem . Kincaid v. . Perkins

Opinion of the Court

Rodman, J.

The deed from John Kincaid, and Polly, Ms-wife, although inoperative as to her, from want of private-examination, yet passed the estate of the husband. He was-entitled to an estate as tenant by the curtesy, and the possession of the defendant did not become adverse until his death in 1867, from which time only, the statute of limitation, began to run. Davenport v. Wynne, 6 Ire. 128.

There is no error in the judgment, and it must be affirmed..

Per Curiam. Judgment affirmed.
