Court of Appeals of Texas June 3, 1885, No. 3524 (Fairy v. State)

Willson, Judge.

William Fairy owned a mare, saddle and bridle at the time of his death. He died intestate, leaving as his only heirs his brother, the defendant, and M. J. Fairy, a half-brother. M. J. Fairy, the half-brother, took possession of said property without administration upon the estate of the deceased, and sold the same, one Faulkenhagen becoming the purchaser thereof.
