The opinion of the Court was delivered by
This is an action for the specific performance of a written contract for the sale of land, brought by the vendor against the vendee. His Honor, Judge Benet, heard the case on testimony taken by the master, and decided that the court of equity did not have jurisdiction, on the ground that there was a plain and adequate remedy at law, and that there were no peculiar featnres in the contract why equity should interfere. There were some other matters stated in the case, but the views of the Court render them immaterial.
It is the judgment of this Court, that the order of the Circuit Court be reversed.
