1Opinion of the CourtBeogdeN, J.
Can an action for wrongful death be maintained in tbe courts of this State upon a cause of action created by tbe law of a foreign State for a killing occurring in said foreign State more than one year from tbe time tbe action is instituted in this State ?
C. S., 160, was originally enacted by chapter 39, Public Laws of 1854, and appeared in tbe Revised Code of 1854 in chapter 1, sections 8, 9, 10 and 11 thereof. Tbe original verbiage of tbe act has been changed from ’ time to time and amendments have been added thereto, but these changes have no bearing upon tbe merits of tbe question at issue.
