Young v. Fitts

BREWSTER, Commissioner.

This is an action in trespass to try title brought by respondent, Earl C. Fitts, against petitioners, C. O. Young and wife, Pearl Young, for title and possession of 155.8 acres of land in Montague County, Texas. Judgment was entered for Fitts on an instructed verdict and the same was affirmed by the Court of Civil Appeals, at Fort Worth. 138 S.W.2d 579.

Fitts asserted two titles but, as the trial court instructed the verdict on undisputed proof of one of them, which action became the subject matter of this appeal, only the one will be considered here.
