Case Followed — Married Woman's Contract.

The rulings in Red River National Bank v. Ferguson, ante, p. 287, are followed and held to control the disposition of this case. The Married Woman's Act of 1913 does not confer on her power to contract as surety for her husband on a note not given for necessaries, and she is not bound thereby. (P. 298.)

MR. CHIEF JUSTICE PHILLIPS delivered the opinion of the court.

This case is ruled by the decision in Red River National Bank v. Ferguson, the question presented being the same.

The judgment of the Court of Civil Appeals is affirmed.

Affirmed.
