Superior Court of Pennsylvania December 7, 1908, Appeal, No. 15 (Commonwealth v. Bierly)

Opinion by

Head, J.,

This amicable action, of trespass was begun, nominally, to recover damages for the cutting of a- few timber trees, but really to test the title to the tract of land upon which they grew.

As early as 1794 eight warrants issued out of the land office, for as many separate tracts of land 'situate chiefly in Snyder county. Each tract contained about 400 acres.
