Widow Stacy's case

1 N.C. 182

Opinion

Doderidge, J.

If a woman has a widow’s estate by custom after her husband’s death. She is within the statute, for her estate is immediately by copy. A copyholder has an interest in the rolls of the court, as well as the lord; because there is the evidence of his title: and the lord cannot deny him assess to the rolls. Bendl. 208, 197. Poph. 205.
