A verdict was rendered for defendant, and from a judgment thereon plaintiffs appealed. Judgment for defendant affirmed. Only part of the opinion is given. 38 MARRIAGE (Ch. 1 Other. What was said by the learned judge as to a contract per verba de futuro was obiter. Chancellor Kent also countenances the position of the plaintiff's counsel. He says : 'If the contract be made per verba de prsesenti and remains without cohabitation, or if made per verba de futuro and be followed by consummation, it ...amounts to a valid marriage in the absence of all civil regulations to the contrary. ' 2 Com. (2d Ed. ) 86. Blackstone too says that in cases of cohabitation, contracts per verba de futuro were, before the mar- riage act, deemed valid marriages for many purposes, and the parties might be compelled, in the spiritual courts, to celebrate them in facie ecclesiae. Notwithstanding these respectable opinions, I have not been able to assent to the proposition.
