Opinion

majority opinion

The Court (Strong, Sedgwick, Sewall, and Thacher, justices) ruled, unanimously, that she could not be examined. To have had the benefit of her testimony, they should have moved to be tried separately from the husband ; which the Court would have granted, had this been assigned as the reason for the motion.
