From The Naturewoman by Upton Sinclair

MASTERSON: We will be content with what rights the law allows us.) What I wished to say was that I would be willing to give Ethel part of my inheritance. (MRS. MASTERSON: Oh!) I would not give it to Freddy, for he is a man, and I should be breaking the mainspring of his life. But I will give half my money to Ethel, provided that you will consent to let her go with me.
