§ 200. Election between devise and dower. If real property is devised
to a woman, or a pecuniary or other provision is made for her by will in
lieu of her dower, she must make her election whether she will take the
property so devised, or the provisions so made, or be endowed of the
lands of her husband; but she is not entitled to both.
