LEGAL STATUS OF
THE MOTHER
IN-LAW.
“I understand that it has been final
ly decided by the Supreme Court of this
State that the relation which existed
between the whale and Jonah was that
of landlord and tenant: and there are a
number of very respectable authorities
who seem satisfied to put Jonah and
the mother-in-law on the same footing.
With this I cannot agree. While it is
true that many a man looks upon his
mother-in-law as a sort of Jonah, that
ought to be expelled from the bosom of
his family and sent elsewhere to lay
down the Gospel, still there are import
ant differences between the two cases.
In the first place, a man’s mother-in
law enters his house on her own in
vitation, whereas Jonah’s was preced
ed by a violent storm, whereas in the
case of the mother-in-law the storm usu
ally follows. In the third place, Jonah
was cast out by the whale after a few
days without even the formality of a
notice to quit, w'hereas there is not a
case on record where a man ever suc
cessfully got rid of his mother-in-law.
And finally, the son-in-law is not a
whale, but a very small fish. Because
of the ill-feeling sometime, unfortunate
ly, existing between the two, some
have thought that she sustained her
position in the family by a sort of feu
dal tenure, while others have put her
down as a tenant-at-will, and this lat
ter is possibly correct, it being under
stood that the will is her own. But
whatever her legal status may be, it
is now well settled that the moth
er-in-law is one of the ordinary haz
zards of the matrimonial enterprise,
and therefore an assumed risk.”
