Supreme Court of Pennsylvania June 28, 1889, No. 44 (Estate of Snively)

Opinion,

Me. Chief Justice Paxson :

This was an appeal from the decree of the Orphans’ Court of Franklin County, distributing the estate of Martha J. Snively, deceased. The principal question was the effect of the recognizance given by the decedent within a year before her death, for the real estate of her deceased father, awarded to her by the Orphans’ Court under proceedings in partition.
