Resumen

This Act establishes that every person who, being a tenant or lodger, the husband or wife of any tenant or lodger, steals any chattel or fixture let to be used by such person in or with any house or lodging, shall be guilty of felony, and on conviction thereof liable. Every person who falsely and deceitfully personates any person, or the heir, executor, administrator, wife, widow, next of kin, or relation, of any person, with intent fraudulently to obtain any land, estate, chattel, money, valuable security, or property, shall be guilty of felony, and on conviction thereof liable to imprisonment with hard labour for any term not exceeding five years. A wife shall have the same remedies and redress under this Act for the protection and security of her own property as if she were femme sole. A wife doing an act with respect to any property of her husband, which, if done by the husband in respect to property of the wife, would make the husband liable to criminal proceedings by the wife under this Act, shall be in like manner liable to criminal proceedings by her husband.
