99 Ga. 250; 25 S.E. 468

Holton v. Holton

Opinion of the Court

Simmons, C. J.

1. An administrator is under no duty of administering as a portion of his intestate’s estate property which did not belong to the latter.

2. The verdict, upon the substantial merits of the case, was manifestly right, and therefore should not be set aside even if the charge of the court was not in all respects accurate and correct.

Judgement affirmed.
