Kidd v. Cruse
Supreme Court of Alabama
Appeal from Slielby County Court; E. S. Lyman, Judge. Ejectment by Dutch Cruse and others against Douglas W. Kidd and others. Judgment for defendants, and plaintiffs appeal.
1Opinion of the CourtMayfield, J.
This is the second appeal in this cause. A report of the former appeal may be found in 195 Ala. 22, 70 South. 166.
As is shown on former appeal, the title of these appellants (appellees on the former appeal) depends upon the construction of the will of one John W. Kidd. That will was first construed by this court, as is shown in the former opinion, in the case of Kidd v. Borum, 181 Ala. 144, 61 South. 100; Ann. Cas. 1915C, 1226.
On the former appeal in this case the will was not construed further than was necessary to decide that appeal. That appeal could have been well decided on an agreement…
