Sawyer v. Nettles

This is an appeal taken by complainant from a final decree in equity denying relief and dismissing the bill of complaint.

The bill as originally filed was by Mrs. Jeffalonia H. Wasden against Mrs. Janie Bell Nettles and Corinne Waters, who were the widow and only child of W. A. (Andrew) Nettles, then deceased. It sought to set aside some deeds executed by complainant to W. A. Nettles during his lifetime. The claim was that a material part of the consideration of each conveyance was an agreement by Nettles to support complainant during her life. That was the only issue tried in the case.
