MILLER, Judge pro tern.
Lillian Gordon Willis brought this suit against Daisy Sanders Gordon, the executrix and sole legatee of the Succession of defendant’s deceased husband, Charles J. Gordon, to set aside a cash sale of property dated February 13, 1947, whereby Mrs. Willis conveyed the property which is the subject of this dispute to her natural father, the said Charles J. Gordon. Mr. Gordon died on June 25, 1954. The grounds for setting aside the sale were that her father fraudulently obtained her signature to the instrument and that she signed the instrument of sale through error.
