[PROCULUS libro quinto epistularum. ] §24.3.60.prSi filia familias nupta decesserit et pater funus ei fecerit, tametsi ei dotem post aliquod tempus gener reddere deberet, tamen continuo socer agendo consequetur, ut impensam funeris praesentem recipiat, cetera dotis statuto tempore soluantur.
[PROCULUS, Epistles, book 5.] If a daughter-in-power dies while married and her father conducts her funeral, even though the son-in-law is bound to return the dowry to him after some period of time, nevertheless the father-in-law will, by bringing an action, immediately achieve that he receives the funeral expenses at once, and that the rest of the dowry is paid at the appointed time.
