Hall v. Bray
Supreme Court of New Jersey
Hall v. Bray, 1 N.J.L. 245 (N.J. 1794)
Cur
Hall v. Bray
Opinion of the Court
Such an agreement is no revocation at law. An intention to sell does hot revoke a will by which the property is devised. In equity, perhaps, it may be considered as an absolute disposition.
