58 Ga. 15 | Ga. | 1877
We are in a court of law, not in a court of equity. The action is ejectment, with no special allegations on which to adjudicate mere equitable rights, or found equitable relief. The property involved may or may not be the proceeds of property owned by Mrs. Pooler at the time of her marriage. The special verdict is silent on that point, and so is the entire record. The deed applying directly to the premises in dispute, is one from the municipal authorities of Savannah, to the trustees of Mrs. Pooler, bearing date in 1831, ten years later than the marriage settlement. That deed makes no reference to the settlement; neither does it mention the
Judgment reversed.
