Wilburn v. Wheeler

E. L. Wilburn and C. M. Wilburn, his wife, by deed dated June 26, 1924, conveyed two tracts of land lying in Giles county, estimated to contain 75 acres, to their daughter, Ethel Wheeler, and her husband, Terrell Wheeler. After the death of C. M. Wilburn and the refusal of the grantees named to reconvey the property to E. L. Wilburn, he instituted this suit, alleging that the grantees held the land in trust for him, and that they had broken their promise to reconvey it to him. *606The chancellor denied his prayer and dismissed the bill. From that decree complainant obtained this appeal.
