152 Ga. 757 | Ga. | 1922
The briefs of counsel for defendant in error mention other reasons why the deeds were inadmissible, such as that the deeds were defective in execution, were not recorded, and the like. We cannot consider the reasons stated in the brief of counsel which do not appear in the record in the case. The bill of exceptions contains the only statement of the matter which we can consider. There it is stated in regard to each deed in question that plaintiff offered in evidence deed from a named grantor to a named grantee, “ convejdng ” the land in question. Accepting this verification as the truth, the deeds which were offered by the plaintiff and rejected by the court had all requisites of valid deeds, and did in fact convey* the land in question each from a predecessor in title to a subsequent predecessor in title.
Judgment reversed.
