It is, therefore, a mere application of a common law principle, to say that a seizin in law is suflicient in Ohio, where in no case is an entry necessary to create an inheritance." The same court holds that curtesy does not vest in the husband until the death of the wife, and then only in such property of which she died seized." The right the husband acquires by marriage in the lands of the wife is thus stated in vol. 2, p. 131 of Kent's Commentaries, Lacy edition, 1889: "If the wife, at the time of marriage, be seized of an estate of inheritance in land, the husband, upon the marriage, becomes seized of the freehold jure uxoris, and he takes the rents and profits during their joint lives. It is a freehold estate in the husband, since it must continue during their joint lives, and it may, by possibility, last during his life. It will be an estate in him for the life of the wife only, unless he be a tenant by the curtesy. It will be an estate in him for his own life, if he dies before his wife, and in that event she takes the estate again in her own right. If the wife dies before the husband, without leaving issue, her heirs immediately succeed to the estate. If there has been a child of the marriage born alive, the husband takes the estate absolutely for life, as tenant by the curtesy and on his death the estate goes to the wife, or her heirs, and in all these cases, the emblements growing upon the land at the termination of the husband's estate go to him or his representatives." If, during her life, real estate is converted by operation of law into personal estate, the conversion will be treated as her own."
