Mississippi Supreme Court October 15, 1896 (Agnew v. Jones)

Stockdale, J.,

delivered the opinion of the court.

A. M. Agnew’s agreement that he would make a deed to Hinds county to the acre of land on which the house was to be erected, was an irrevocable license for the purposes for which it was made, as long as the house was used for the purposes specified. The heirs of Agnew have all the rights, and no more, that their ancestor had.
