sound mind.

ginia, a person of unsound mind, who has been heretofore,
and now is, an inmate of the Eastern lunatic asylum, at
Williamsburg, Virginia, is a wife and the mother of six
children, four of whom are minors; that the physical condi-
tion of her husband is such that he cannot support his family,
and that she has a small trust estate of one thousand dollars,
or less, which the circuit court has directed her committee to
invest in a homestead for her family; but that he is embar.

after incurred by either, in the maintenance, removal 01
transportation of said Ella J. Jones, at, to or from said asy:
lum, or elsewhere.

2. This act shall be in force from its passage.
