Dewing v. Congregational Society of North Parish
Dewing v. Congregational Society of North Parish
79 Mass. 414
Dewing v. Congregational Society of North Parish
Opinion of the Court
We cannot distinguish this case from that of Parker v. Bell, 7 Gray, 429.
Those who had claims that were seasonably recorded, and that were not barred at the time when Dewing’s petition was entered, were rightly summoned in, and have the same remedies as if each of them had seasonably filed his separate petition.
