Syllabus

<p>1. Homestead Abandonment.—When a wife removes her domicile from this to another State she relinquishes any right of homestead which she might have retained had she continued an inhabitant of Texas.</p> <p>2. Same.—It is immaterial what business may engage the attention of husband and wife who once establish their home beyond the limits of Texas; the nature of their business can have no weight in destroying the effect of the abandonment already accomplished.</p>
