A woman being summoned in the principal summons, if thereafter she marry, (because a wife cannot answer unless her husband be summoned,) the pursuer, commonly by a bill, meaning himself to the Lords, gets the summons continued against her husband, as if he had been summoned in the beginning. This was found between Margaret Baillie and Janet Roberton.
