Warren v. Warren
Supreme Court of Virginia
Error to a judgment of the Circuit ’Court of the city of Williamsburg and county of James City, rendered November 17, 1893, in an action of ejectment, wherein the defendant in error, Henry B. Warren, was the plaintiff, and the plaintiff in error, Mary E. Warren, was the defendant.
1Opinion of the CourtBuchanan, J.
The only assignment of error relied on in this case is to the action of the court below in allowing certain evidence to go to the jury, to which the defendant (the plaintiff in error here) objected.
