1Opinion of the Court
Pee Ctjeiam,
For reasons given by the learned judge of the common pleas, we think he was clearly right in holding that, under the will of Mary Hiester Weber, the plaintiff is seized of a fee simple estate in the premises in question, and in entering judgment in his favor on the case stated.
