Young v. Keogh
Illinois Supreme Court
This was an action of ejectment, in the usual form. Plea of the general issue and similiter. Jury returned a verdict of not guilty, upon the trial of the cause, before Hugh T. Dickey, Judge, at the January term, A. D. 1850, of the Jo Daviess County Court. As will be seen by the opinion, this case presents much the same state of facts, and same points of discussion, as the preceding case between Young et al. vs. Loraine.
1Opinion of the Court
Opinion by Mr. Justice Catón :
The title set up by the defendant in this case, is claimed under a sale made by the same guardian as in the case of Young vs. Lorain, and for the same wards, and made upon an order of the game Court, passed in 1846, and most of the questions arising here are precisely like those decided there, and any further examination of them now is unnecessary.
The petition, however, which was produced in this case, and upon which the Circuit Court ordered the premises to be sold, differs somewhat from the one produced in the other case, and yet we think enough was shown here…
