Fakes v. Vilven

GRAVES, Justice.

This appeal is from a judgment of the court below, sitting without a jury, decreeing that appellants take nothing against the appellees in their suit against them — in the nature of a trespass to try title action— for the title to and possession of 1½ lots of improved property in the City of Houston, wherein, in the alternative, the appellants had also prayed for the foreclosure of liens they claimed on the land by virtue both of a $1,750 vendor’s lien note against it and of their alleged payment of delinquent taxes ’ thereon, together with certain other relief.

The able trial…
