Succession of Dill

1Opinion of the CourtSt. Paul, J.
In 1887 Dill, the deceased, married Caroline Rogers, Widow Gerard, in the state of New York; whence the couple removed to Texas. Thereafter the husband removed alone to Louisiana, where he established a domicile and acquired an estate composed of movable (personal) property, valued about $60,000 net. It does not appear when the husband first came to Louisiana, nor why the wife did not accompany him. But in 1902 the wife was committed to an insane asylum in New York, and in 1904 her daughter, Mabel Gerard, wife of Livingston, was duly and legally appointed her guardian (curatrix).
