Lankford v. Pope
Lankford v. Pope
Opinion of the Court
On a former appearance (Lankford v. Pope, 206 Ga. 430 (57 S. E. 2d, 538)), in reviewing a ruling made on demurrer to the petition to recover land, it was held that the deed relied upon by the petitioner contained a key that, if aided by extrinsic evidence, might supply a legal description. That key was held by us to be “said piece of land designated by stakes, containing % acre.” Upon the trial considerable testimony was introduced, but none of it even mentioned a lot designated by stakes as described in the deed upon which the suit was predicated, and a nonsuit was granted. The exception to that order is without merit. See Blumberg v. Nathan, 190 Ga. 64 (8 S. E. 2d, 374).
Judgment affirmed.
