Eldridge v. Fisher

Wednesday, 18th November. By the whole court, (consisting of Judges Fleming, Roane, and Tucker) the judgment of the District Court was reversed.

Judge Tucker

expressed himself as follows: “ Every point in this cause has been so fully discussed both by the bar, and the court in the case of Hill v. Burrow(e) (which I cannot distinguish from this, except as to the date of the will, which, in that case was antecedent to the Act for docking entails;) and in the case of Tate v. Tally„ (f) as to preclude all further discussion upon them, without leaving the decisions of this court in a state of. perpetual fluctuation. I am therefore of opinion that the judgment be reversed, and a judgment entered for the defendants in the ejectment.
