Bar Association) Contracts of Husbands May a husband convey his real property without the consent of his wife? Although a husband in North Carolina may convey his real property by deed, without the written joinder of his wife, the purchaser runs the risk of having to give up the possession of a portion or all of the real pro perty to the husband’s survi ving widow during her life time If the surviving widow elects to do so, she may claim a life estate in one-third in value of all the real property her deceased husband owned at any time during their mar riage. A wife who joins with her husband in the conveyance of his real property thereby waives her future right to claim a life estate in the par i I ■ REFLECTIONS • I By Gordon Greenwood | IT'S A LONG WAY TO RALEIGH It’s a long way from Black Mountain to Raleigh. In fact it’s a fur piece from anywhere in the mountains to the Capitol City which actually marks the end of 1 the Piedmont and the beginning of Eastern North ^ Carolina. Last week as the Marcus Begley station wagon | rolled down the mountain to Old Fort and on out into the hot Piedmont, the change in scenery and -+( the type of geography didn't cause nearly as much . conversation as did the type of roads and highways ' which they ride on in that area of the state. j From the one road—U.S. 70 which by necessity must carry the Lion's share of the traffic from the east | to the western part of the state beyond Black Moun tain—the roads start to branch out in the Piedmont I and you are amazed at the number of super roads and j improved highways that offer a vivid contrast to the one way system enjoyed in our own area. I PLEASANT JOURNEY I greatly enjoyed the trip with the Black Moun- | tain Town Board and mayor, R. T. Greene, town man- j ager, and Gene Ford, Ex-Cell-0 manager and president j} of the Black Mountain Chamber of Commerce. jl You can bet that no one travelling with this crowd j will ever be lonesome or bored. j As spokesman for the entire Buncombe County ■ group, Mayor Richard B. Stone did a fine job, as i usual, and the governor gave a direct and to the I point answer. Unless my ears deceived me he did j not qualify his decision to build the fourth lane j onto U.S. 70 from Black Mountain to Asheville in i any manner. i As one observer said later: I “Dick Stone made such an earnest plea for that J road that I would have promised to build it myself I if the governor hadn’t”. j It was a highly successful trip and one we won’t 1 forget soon. | The town board, mayor, R. T. Greene, and Gene J Ford are to be commended for taking time out from I their rushing activities here at home and to spend B two days in Raleigh on business above and beyond the call of their duties. i Governor Sanford must have been impressed too | at the size of the delegation. Of course we can’t ride on the road until it’s fin ished. But in my opinion we are closer now than we ! have ever been to seeing the new fourth lane become; a reality. ANDY NESBITT According to sources considered reliable Andy Nesbitt, Fairview dairyman, will be named to the North ■ Carolina Highway commission to replace Yates Bennett 1 of Burnsville. Mr. Bennett resigned because of press ing business. Highway commissioner is a time consuming job, with little pay and no thanks. I believe they get $7.00 a day on a per diam basis. If you don't think they lose money, ask any member of the commission. | Andy Nesbitt has the ability and personality to n do a good job for the counties he will serve and for A the state. i] THE NEW LIGHTS Few things that have happened here have caused as much talk and discussion as installation of the new! lights on State street. To find the answer to some of the questions that had been raised I went to the town officials. In brief! this is what I learned. 1 The chief concern of the town board is not to ] move traffic through town but to regulate traffic J within the town limits so that the local citizens , have an equal chance with motorists just passing | through. It would move traffic much faster on U.S. 70 and I cause less commotion if the lights on State street were ; , turned off during the busy hours and the cars hurried i ' along through town, but this can not be done without | discriminating against the local citizens who pay the i taxes and who deserve an equal opportunity and equal i “crossing time”. * The four-way walk lights at the corner of Broad way and State have been tried in other towns and. when the people become accustomed to them, have worked extremely well, officials pointed out. It is just a matter of adjustment. SOMEWHERE — OUT HERE That is a strange address but is the one given by James H. Skelton, our correspondent at Carolina Beach. Chaplain Skelton, who holds down the fort at Western North Carolina Sanatorium, sent along a feat ure article on Black Mountain clipped from the Wins ton-Salem Journal. The story written by Ashton Chap man gave a fine description of the community and I might add a boost. : —R— ! It is always easier to follow the band than to I face the music. ticular property upon his death. Purchasers, on advice of lawyers, generally refuse to buy land from a husband un less the deed is signed by both the husband and wife. May a husband sell or give away his personal property without the consent of his wife? Yes. May a husband mortgage SAVE CURRENT DIVIDEND RATE a SAVINGS MADE 10th DRAW DIVIDEND FROM THE 1st BLACK MOUNTAIN BUILDING & LOAN ASSN. 104 BROADWAY DIAL 9-7991 the household and kitchen furniture, which he owns I without the written consent of his wife? j No. A North Carolina stat ute declares void chattel | mortgage and other liens on , household and kitchen furni- I ture which he owns, unless the wife joins therein and her acknowledgement is tak en in the manner prescribed by law in conveyances of real estate. The statute does not apply, i however, to mortgages for the purchase -money thereof. There is nothing in the statute which deprives the husband of his right to sell or give away any personal pro perty which he owns, includ-; ing household and kitchen furniture, without the con sent of his wife. The statute merely prevents him from mortgaging or placing any kind of lien on household or kitchen furniture in the home. Strange as it may seen, there is nothing under the law of North Carolina to pre vent a wife from mortgaging or placing a lien upon her personal property, including her household and kitchen furniture, without the joinder of her husband. The deed to real property is in the names of husband and wife. May the husband convey the property without the consent of his wife? No. If the owners of real property are husband and wife, there exists what law yers call an “estate by the entirety.” Neither can sell or j convey without the consent, of the other.
