Williamson v. Irish Presbyterian Congregation of the City of New York

by James Moore Wayne

United States Supreme Court

49 U.S. 565

Williamson  v.  Irish Presbyterian Congregation of the City of New York

THIS case was similar to the preceding one, in which the same facts and principles were involved. The only difference between them was, that the following point was certified in this case, which was not in the preceding, viz.:--

8. Whether the defendants, who derive title bon a fide, and for a valuable consideration, by purchase through the grantees of George De Grasse, as set forth in the case, have a valid title as against the plaintiffs.

It was argued in conjunction with the preceding case, as has been mentioned in the report of that case.

Mr. Justice WAYNE delivered the opinion of the court.
