Found, that moveable bonds taken in a wife's name, or assigned to her stante matrimonio by her husband, do not recur back to him jure mariti, nor need to be confirmed if not revoked; and that the contracting of a debt by a husband, after a gratuitous deed in favour of his wife, if the husband became otherwise insolvent to pay all, is a tacit revocation of what is so given to the wife, though the act of Parliament 1621 would not reach her, which only provides for the security of anterior debts.
