Court of Appeals of Texas March 11, 1938, No. 13715. (Trico Oil Co. v. Pelton)

lead-opinion

This suit arose over the assignment of an oil and gas lease on a tract of land of about 2 1/2 acres, in Rusk county, Tex., which had been carved out of a larger tract of 14 acres. The lease on such 14-acre tract appears to have been owned by one R. E. Blankenship, and on the 27th day of September, 1930, said Blankenship assigned such lease to W. V. Lester.
