SECT. 3. No existing settlement shall be changed by any provision of this act, un- less the entire residence and taxation herein required shall have accrued after its pas- sage; but any unsettled person shall gain a settlement upon the completion of the resi- dence and taxation herein required, though the whole or a part of the same may have accrued before the passage of this act.


SECT. 4. The provisions of this act shall not apply to any person, who, at the date of its passage, shall be an inmate of either of the State Lunatic hospitals, the asylum for insane and the State Almshouse at Tewksbury, the State Workhouse, or the State Primary School, until such person shall have been duly discharged from said institu- tion. [Approved May 28, 1874.]


The Board of State Charities asked the Attorney General of the Commonwealth, for an interpretation of the first clause of the second section of this law. His response was as follows :


ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE,


BOSTON, September 19, 1874.


To the Board of State Charities :


Prior to Acts of 1870, chapter 392, an unmarried woman could obtain a settlement only under the provisions of the General Statutes, chapter 69. By the Act of 1870, "any unmarried woman " obtained a settlement by a residence of ten years together, in any place, under certain conditions. By chapter 274, section 2, of the Acts of 1874, section 1 of chapter 392, Acts of 1870, is repealed, and a new provision substituted. The substitute changes the law of 1870 in three particulars; the effect of one only is ma- terial for me to consider under the question submitted by your Board for my opinion. In the Act of 1874, the word " unmarried " is omitted. The plain and obvious inten- tion of the Legislature by this change of the law, is to so arrange the law of settlement as that women shall have the same rights, irrespective of any condition of marriage. The language of the Act, taken in connection with the Act repealed, does not allow of any other construction, and the intention of the Legislature, if it can be ascertained, is to govern. In the present instance, the omission of the word "unmarried," and the use of the word " woman" only, makes it appear manifestly to have been the inten- tion of the Legislature to use the word " woman" in the Act, so as not to be affected or modified by the condition of marriage; and in my opinion, no other construction can be given the Act. The intention of the Legislature being manifest, no considera- tion of presumption can arise.


Yours very respectfully,


CHARLES R. TRAIN.

SUPREME JUDICIAL COURT OF THE COMMONWEALTH.


Sept. 12th, 1876.


CITY OF SOMERVILLE VS. THE CITY OF BOSTON.


The plaintiff in this suit sought to recover for relief furnished under the pauper laws to a married woman. It was claimed by the plaintiff that Mary McCloskey, who, be- fore her marriage had no settlement in this Commonwealth, acquired one in Boston,. under Stat. 1874, chap. 274, sec. 2, by marriage, and five years' continuous residence in that city with her husband, who had himself no settlement there or elsewhere in this State, and who acquired none by such residence. The statute relied on, declares that any woman of the age of twenty-one years who resides in any place within this. State for five years together, without receiving relief as a pauper, shall thereby gain a settlement in such place; and it expressly repeals the first section of chap. 392 of the- Acts of 1870, by which any unmarried woman of the age of twenty-one years was per- mitted to gain a settlement by ten years' residence. By the first clause of sect. 1 of chapter 69 of the General Statutes, the settlement of a married woman is made to fol- low the settlement of her husband, if he has any; otherwise her own, at the time of marriage, if she then had any, is not lost or suspended by the marriage. The question to be decided was whether section 2 of chapter 274 of the Laws of 1874, so far repeals- the first clause of section 1 of chapter 69, that a married woman shall thereby acquire a settlement in a city or town where her husband has none.


The case was heard on agreed facts, and judgment has now been reached for the de- fendant. The rescript is as follows :-


"The statute of 1874 was intended to diminish the time from ten to five years, required to give to an unmarried woman a settlement, and not to extend the class of persons to whom the law as it then stood, was applicable."


C. ROBINSON, JR., for the Plaintiff; and


J. L. STACKPOLE, for the Defendant.
