Cole v. Laconia Savings-Bank

Allen, J. To entitle the claimant to a homestead, there must be a home established on the land claimed, or the land must be a part of that which constitutes the homestead, or connected with it by beneficial use. The case shows no home on the land, and the land is no part of a homestead, and is not connected with one by use, nor in any way appurtenant or incident to one. Mere intention cannot make a home. Bill dismissed. Bingham, J., did not sit: the others concurred.
