Decided 1797-07-05
Per
Curiam,
¶1
The deed ascertaining the boundaries is not binding, being signed by the defendant during her coverture with the-second husband ; neither is her acceptance of dower during coverture an estopal to her to claim more as it might have been, had the acceptance been during her widowhood, but she ought to have had a new assignment of dower if she was dissatisfied with the former; she cannoqenter uponand occupy what part she pleases without assignment, and therefore her entering upon the land beyond those bounds, and clearing and cultivating them, was a trespass.
