Texas Supreme Court July 1, 1864 (Raines v. Calloway)

Bell, J.

It is plain from the evidence, that in the deed from Raines to Calloway, there was a misdescription of a portion of the land which Raines intended to convey. The evidence shows that previous to the execution of the deed, Raines had pointed out the land to Calloway. The land about which the parties contracted, was situated in a body, in Union parish, and in township Ho. nineteen.
