in  a  doubtful  case  domicile  may  be  presumed  from  ten  years'
residence.  Moreover,  it  is  possible  to  have  several  domiciles.1
From  these  considerations  it  follows  that  though  the  goods  of
domiciled  persons  may  be  taken,  those  of  aliens  proper  must  be
respected  (as  was  the  case  in  the  recent  war  between  England
and  Spain),  unless  they  actively  assist  the  enemy.
