    Yellow Cab Company of Atlanta v. Lampkin.
   Broyles, C. J.

1. “Primarily the husband, and not the wife, is responsible for necessaries, such as medicine and medical treatment furnished to the wife where she has, sustained a personal injury.” Wrightsville & Tennille R. Co. v. Vaughan, 9 Ga. App. 371, 378 (4) (71 S. E. 691), and cit.

(a) “While a married woman has such contractual ability that she can make a special contract to pay for necessaries furnished to her, still where it does not allirmatively appear that she has so contracted, and it merely appears that the necessaries were furnished, it is to be presumed that she contracted for them in the right of her general agency for her husband, and that he, and not she, is liable for them.” Wrightsville & Tennille R. Co. v. Vaughan, supra.

Decided November 13, 1929.
