Barrows, J.

The plaintiff, Sophia, wife of Levi Lashus, brought this action of trespass against the defendant, a deputy sheriff’ in the county of Kennebec, basing her claim to recover on the ground that he had attached and carried away a small stock of goods and the furniture in a certain saloon as the property of her husband, Levi Lashus, when in fact the same belonged to her.
