Syllabus

<p>Husband and wife — Estate by entireties.</p> <p>1. A deed dated March 30, 1907, conveying land to a husband and wife, naming them as such, “as tenants in common,” vests in the husband and wife an estate by entireties, and not an estate as joint tenants or tenants in common.</p> <p>2. There is nothing in the married women acts of 1848, 1887 and 1893, which changes the common-law rule that a devise or grant of real estate to a husband and wife gives a title by entireties.</p>
