Clark, Gordon, Green, Mercur, Paxson, Sterrett, Trunkey
Krebs v. Stroub
Opinion of the Court
The land sought to be recovered in this action of ejectment was not conveyed on any condition, for the enforcement of which this action will lie.
It is true, the bond was given to secure the payment of the consideration; but consideration and a condition are essentially different. The judgment entered on the special verdict is clearly correct.
Judgment affirmed.
