Texas Co. v. Lee

W. Edward Lee filed this suit in form of trespass to try title, including pleas of five and ten years statutes of limitation, against The Texas Company and others, for title to and possession of a seven-eighths leasehold interest in and to a 1.86 acre tract of land, alleged to be located in the John Blair Survey in Gregg County. The case was tried before the court without a jury, and judgment was rendered in favor of W. Edward Lee. The Texas Company was the only party that appealed to the Court of Civil Appeals at Texarkana, and the judgment of the trial court was affirmed. 135 S. W. (2d) 180.
