<p>An agreement by which a husband and wife undertake to convey lands owned by'the latter as her separate property under the Constitution or statute of Florida, and as to which she has not made her acknowledgment on a separate examination, is void as to the wife, and equity will not specifically enforce it against lier, although the party seeking relief has paid the consideration, and is in possession. That this rule would be altered by the fact that she had made such an acknowledgment—neither admitted nor passed upon.</p>
