Musar for Gittin 69:10
רב לטעמיה דרב לא מגבי כתובה לארמלתא וליאדרה וליגבייה בשני דרב קילי נדרי
A certain woman appealed to R. Huna [to enforce payment of her <i>kethubah</i>]. He said to her, What can I do for you, seeing that Rab would not enforce payment of a <i>kethubah</i> to a widow? She said to him: Is not the only reason the fear that perhaps I have already received part of my <i>kethubah</i>? By the Lord of Hosts I swear that I have not received a penny from my <i>kethubah</i>. Said R. Huna: Rab would admit [that we enforce payment] where the widow takes the oath spontaneously.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Lit., 'jumps forward'. ');"><sup>8</sup></span>
