Smith's Heirs v. Railroad Lands Co.
Supreme Court of Louisiana
Appeal from First Judicial District Court, Parish, of Caddo; Thomas Fletcher Bell, Judge. Action by the heirs of one Smith and others against the Railroad Lauds Company. Judgment for plaintiffs, and defendant appeals.
1Opinion of the CourtBreaux, C. J.
This suit was brought by plaintiffs in order, as they alleged, to have the judgment “construed,” “elucidated,” and “interpreted” which was rendered in favor of plaintiff against defendant’s author on the 4th day of August, 1886, in the federal Circuit Court.
The judgment which plaintiffs seels to have “construed,” “elucidated,” and “interpreted” decreed, as against the Vicksburg, Shreveport & Pacific Railroad Company (called in warranty in the suit before us for decision), that plaintiffs are the owners of 35.18 acres of the ever-memorable land known in jurisprudence as “Silver Lake.”
