Willie James Stewart Et Al. v. Horace

SIMPSON, Justice. This appeal is taken from a final decree which overruled complainants' demurrer and exceptions to respondent's
cross-bill and answer respectively, denied relief for which complainants had prayed in their bill to quiet title, granted
to the respondent the relief prayed for in his answer and cross-bill, decreed that the complainants have no right, title,
or interest in the subject property, and quieted respondent's title in and to said property. In the decree it was further
ordered that the respondent have and recover possession of the tract of land known as Parcel Number Two. By agreement of the parties to this litigation, and pursuant to an order of the lower court, an ejectment suit seeking to
recover possession of a tract of 77 acres of the subject property, filed by the respondent on February 25, 1957, wherein the
defendant was one of the complainants in the present proceeding, was transferred to the equity side of the court and consolidated
with a statutory bill to quiet title to the remaining 80 acre tract of the subject property, wherein the respondent was the
plaintiff in the ejectment suit. Thus the title to both parcels of property was tried and quieted together in the equity court.
