Tennessee Supreme Court December 15, 1857 (Galloway v. Bradshaw)

Caruthers, J.,

delivered the opinion of the Court.

This hill is filed for the rescission of a contract for nine acres of land, upon the ground of failure of title to a part of it — about two acres.

Bradshaw conveyed a small tract of land adjoining Columbia, on the east, to a trustee, to secure a certain debt. The land was laid off into small lots, and sold at auction.
