Survivor-ship.</p> <p>Where a deed was executed in the year 1861 conveying lands to a husband and his wife, under the law then in force, it conveyed to them an estate by entireties and consequently on the death of either the other became the sole owner and may convey the fee of the land therein described.</p> <p>2.
