A wife being acted in the books of session of her parochin, to abstain from suspect company of a slanderous man, under a pecuniary pain; albeit her husband have consented to the act, she being therefore decerned by that session to have contravened that act, and being charged for the penalty, the same will not have execution against the executors of her defunct husband; because it is not thought reasonable that the husband's goods shall be evicted for the penalty of an injury done by his wife to himself.
