Duncanson v. Howell

W. H. Duncanson, Ed, C. Taylor, and O. G. Harris, plaintiffs, brought this action against Lee Howell, defendant, to establish title to, and recover possession of, 60 acres of land, known as “Howell Gardens,” constituting part of a larger tract of land known as “Bermuda Colony.” Plaintiffs sued “for themselves and as trustees for, and as tenants in common with, the shareholders in what is known as ‘Bermuda Colony’ and ‘Brundage Townsite,’ in Dimmit county, Texas,” alleging that the shareholders numbered probably 600, and that it was practically impossible to give all their names and residences.
