Bodley v. Hord

9 Ky. 244; 2 A.K. Marsh. 244; 1820 Ky. LEXIS 33

Bodley v. Hord

Opinion of the Court

Judge Owsley

delivered the opinion of the court.

According to the case of Allen against Robinson, 3 Bibb, 326, and of the correctness of which we still entertain no doubt, the circuit court correctly decided, that the deed of the register to Hord, purporting to have been made for the sale of land for taxes, implies, prima facie, a compliance with the requisitions of the laws under which the law was sold, and the deed executed.

The judgment must be affirmed with cost.
