Under the General Statutes, a married woman is capable of buying goods to be held in her own right, and of making herself liable to pay for them: and the liability of a married woman residing in New Hampshire, for goods bought by her in Massachusetts, can be enforced in New Hampshire.
DOE, C. J.
The sale was completed in Massachusetts, where the plaintiff's sales of intoxicating liquor were lawful, and where a married woman, buying property, is liable for the price. Ames v. Foster, 3 Allen 541; Stewart v. Jenkins, 6 Allen 300. The Massachusetts liability of the defendant to pay for the property she bought is not in conflict with the New Hampshire law of married women (Messer v. Smyth, ante, p. 298), nor hostile to New Hampshire interests, nor contrary to good morals, and may be enforced here. Smith v. Godfrey, 28 N.H. 379.
