Syllabus

<p>Married woman — Liability on her covenants in a deed.</p> <p>The disability of a wife conveying her separate estate to join in the covenants of the deed made by her husband no longer exists; since the acts of 1887 and 1893 she is now undoubtedly liable on her covenants in such a deed.</p> <p>Husband and wife — Conveyance of separate estates by one deed.</p> <p>A husband owned the fee in which his wife held, in her own right, a ground rent; this man and wife each thus having an interest in the subject of the grant by apt and unambiguous words conveyed the same. Held, that the rent not being reserved in the deed was clearly granted without exception, limitation or qualification to their vendee.</p>
