Syllabus

<p>1. Married women—remedy against them, on contracts. The liability of a married woman for services rendered at her request, in relation to her separate property, is at law, and not in equity.</p> <p>3. Same—charge on their separate property. There must be a positive intention manifested by some appropriate instrument in writing, or otherwise, to make the debt or claim a specific charge upon the separate property of a married woman, before equity will assume jurisdiction to enforce it.</p>
