McDonald v. Sturtevant
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania · Decided May 7, 1900 · Brown, Cttriam, Fell, Green, Mestrezat, Mitchell
195 Pa. 648; 46 A. 142; 1900 Pa. LEXIS 699

McDonald v. Sturtevant

Opinion of the Court

Per Cttriam,

It is sufficient to say in this case that there is no satisfactory evidence showing that there ever was any written defeasance against the absolute deed made by K. C. McDonald to John C. Sturtevant, and therefore, under the provisions of the Act of June 8, 1881, P. L. 84, there' can be no recovery upon the claim made in the plaintiffs’ bill.

Decree affirmed and appeal dismissed at the cost of the appellants.
