Upon report of Mr Boswell, Lord Probationer, the Lords found that even the wife of a journeyman tailor might have paraphernalia, such as rings and other trinkets, which in this case the woman, who was the daughter of a bailie in Linlithgow, had brought with her; but they found that she could not assign or dispose of them without the consent or her husband; for though the wife be absolute proprietor of her paraphernalia, the husband is her curator, and she cannot act without his consent. This the Court found unanimously, though they had formerly varied in their decisions upon this point.
