CAN a husband rob his wife? Baron Huddleston has answered this by saying (1) he cannot rub her at all under the common law, which regards all the wife's property mid (2) theft is only as the husband's; and robbery under the Married Women's Property Act when the wife is living apart from her husband or when he is preparing to desert hos. It is really quite amazing, to desert hor. It is really quita a contemporary observes, how many advantages sinistrose has over a wife in all matters relating to property and to person. It almost seems as if the object of the law was to tliet such disabilition on wives in order to induce tho fair sex to perfer con- cubinage to matrimony. Baron Huddles. ton's rating notwithstanding, we are advisBefore

ed that if & husband steals his wife's lettors ho can be proaccutad for theft under the Married Women's Property Act, even although he is usither keeping a separate estaldialment poc a proparing to desert her.
