The relief sought by plaintiff is the cancelation of a deed to a quarter-section of land in Boone county. It was executed October 17, 1900, and promptly delivered. Plaintiff was grantor, and his daughter, Letta F. Moore, now Letta F. Britizus, was grantee. At the time he was a widower, 71 years old. He had a number of children, but all were married or absent except grantee, who remained single until she was 30. In 1903 she married and moved to South Dakota. Three years later she went to California, where she still resides. In the deed grantee reserved the right to use and occupy the premises during the remainder of his life, and exercised that right nine years
The question presented by the record is: What does equity require under the evidence? After a careful consideration of the proofs of both parties, the conclusion is unanimous that there must be a finding in favor of grantee on all the controverted issues. It follows that the decree below is without error.
Affirmed.
