The Boston Evening-Post reported on 15 March 1736 an argument between two men "and a certain woman, each one claiming her as his Wife, but so it was that one of them had actually disposed of his Right in her to the other for Fifteen Shillings".
Boston Evening-Post z 15. března 1736 popisoval hádku mezi dvěma muži a „jistou ženou, kde každý z nich tvrdil, že se jedná o jeho manželku, ale bylo to tak, že pouze jeden z nich mohl nakládat s právem na ni od druhého a to za 15 šilinků“.
