Elliott v. Elliott

McDONALD, Chief Justice.

The principal parties to this suit are the four children of C. E. Elliott and his wife, Mrs. M. E. Elliott, both of whom are now deceased. C. E. Elliott, a son, and Vera Spencer, a daughter, are plaintiffs, and J. King Elliott, a son, his wife, Phena Anderson Elliott, and Uretta Small, a daughter, are defendants. The two daughters are joined by their husbands in the suit.

C. E. Elliott died in 1910. It seems to be undisputed that he died intestate, and that there was no administration on his estate and no necessity for such. Mrs. M. E. Elliott died on July 10, 1945.…
