COLE v. BANK

The right of homestead exemption does not exist in land on which no home is established, or which is no part of a homestead and is not connected with one by beneficial use.

ALLEN, J.

To entitle the claimant to a homestead, there must be a home established on the land claimed, or the land must be a part of that which constitutes the homestead, or connected with it by beneficial use. The case shows no home on the land, and the land is no part of a homestead, and is not connected with one by use, nor in any way appurtenant or incident to one. Mere intention cannot make a home.

Bill dismissed.

BINGHAM, J., did not sit: the others concurred.
