4 N.H. 53 | Superior Court of New Hampshire | 1827
The statute of June 26, 1810, provides that any person interested with others in any tract of land may make application to the justices of the superior court, who are empowered to cause partition to be made by a committee of five disinterested freeholders resident in the county in which the land is situated ; “ which division and partition being made and returned to said court, under the hands of said committee, or a majority of them upon oath, &c, and allowed, &c. shall be valid and effectual to all intents and purposes.”
We are therefore of opinion that the report in this case cannot'be accepted. All the members of the committee should have attended.
Report rejected.
