DEED of INDEMNITY by HUSBAND and WIFE to Trustees making an UNAUTHORISED TRANSFER of part of the Settled Funds (a).

PARTIES, A. & B., his wife, 1; C. & D., trees, 2. Recite settlemt on marre of A. & B. of the wife's funds in trust for the wife for life with restraint on anticipon, remr to the issue, & in default of issue for the wife if survivg the husbd absolutely; & if she shd predece him for her testy apptees or next of kin. That

(a) As to the effect of the wife's covenant under the Married Women's Property Acts, 1882 and 1893, see p. 491, note. The wife should make a will under her power of appointment, so that the settled funds (inclusive of the part sold out), may be liable to satisfy the covenant (Re Parkin, [1892] 3 Ch. 510); but the appointed fund must necessarily by s. 4 of the above-mentioned Act be liable (irrespectively of the terms of the appointment) to satisfy all the debts and engagements of the wife pari passu; moreover she cannot bind herself to exercise her testamentary power in any particular way so as to give a right to specific performance (Re Parkins, ubi sup.; Re Anne, [1894] 1 Ch. 549), or not to revoke the will and not to die intestate. The indemnity therefore, so far as the wife is concerned, is altogether precarious.

Under the old law the payment of the fund to the wife under such circumstances did not disentitle her to call for payment over again in the event of her surviving her husband (even in case of fraud, Arnold v. Woodhams, 16 Eq. 29; Stanley v. Stanley, 7 Ch. D. 589), since the restraint on anticipation effectually prevented her from giving a valid receipt for the capital of the fund; and even if she were not so restrained, such anticipatory payment would have been invalid on the principle of Whittle v. Henning, 2 Ph. 731; but by the Trustee Act, 1893, repealing, and by s. 45 re-enacting the Trustee Act, 1888 (51 & 52 Vict. c. 59), s. 6, the beneficial interest of a married woman may now in such a case be impounded as an indemnity to the trustees, although she is restrained from anticipation; Griffith v. Hughes, [1892] 3 Ch. 105; but see Bolton v. Curre, [1895] 1 Ch. 544. As to the power of the Court to dispense with the restraint under the Conv. Act, 1881, s. 39, see Wolstenholme, C. A. 92; Hood & Challis, 105, note; Re Little, 40 Ch. D. 418.
