Opinion of the Court

JONES, J.

said that if husband and wife are arrested for the debt of the wife, and he finds bail for himself, he shall be detained until he find bail for her also. But it newer was seen that the wife should be detained until the husband should find bail bail for himself. Whereupon an attachment was awarded against Cole, under-sheriff of Dorset, who detained a woman for this reason.
