Sec. 12.
All contracts, sales or incumbrances made by either the husband or
wife, by virtue of the power contemplated in the preceding section, shall
be binding on both, and during such absence or confinement, the person
acting under such power may sue and be sued thereon; and for all acts done
the property of both shall be liable, and execution may be levied or
attachment issued accordingly. No suit or proceeding shall abate, or be in
anywise affected, by the return or release of the person absent or
confined, but he or she shall be permitted to prosecute or defend jointly
with the other.
