Robertson v. Kirby
Court of Appeals of Texas
Error from Taylor. Tried below before Hon. N. R. Lindsey.
1Opinion of the Court
STEPHENS, Associate Judge.
This writ of error is prosecuted from a judgment denying Hattie C. Robertson recovery of a tract of land situated in Jones County. She sought to eject defendants in error, who were mere intruders, by showing prior possession of the land, and a chain of title from the patentee, Henry B. Williams. The case was submitted to the jury on special issues, and as no complaint was made in motion for new trial or otherwise in the court below of the verdict, it becomes conclusive as to the facts found. Rev. Stats., art. 1332.
In response to the first and second special issues…
