Supreme Court of Rhode Island · Decided December 30, 1898 · Matteson, Stiness, Tillinghast
42 A. 515; 21 R.I. 126; 1898 R.I. LEXIS 45

Cronshaw v. Cronshaw

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

(1) We think that the share of the proceeds of the sale of the land in the partition suit, which would have belonged to John Oronshaw if he had survived, is to be treated as land. Freem. Oot. § 549.

We also think that the appellant, Julia Oronshaw, is entitled to have the same set off to her, to hold in addition to her dower, as provided in Glen. Laws R. I. cap. 214, § 4.
