Syllabus

<p>It is not in the power of a Court of Equity to compel a married woman to correct an insufficient acknowledgment to a deed, for which she and her husband hare received the consideration. Her consent must be perfectly free. She can make no contract to bind herself, except in the manner prescribed by law. The provisions of the statute must be strictly pursued.</p>
