Description
This suit is brought to this court, by an appeal from the circuit court of the district of Ohio. The complainants claimed through their ancestor, James Galt, one thousand acres of land, under a military warrant obtained by him, as heir to his brother, Patrick Galt. The entry was made on the 6th of August 1787, as follows: 'No. 610, James Galt, heir, enters one thousand acres on part of a military warrant, No. 194, on the Miami river: beginning at the upper corner of Francis Whiting's entry, No. 438, running up the river five hundred poles, when reduced to a straight line; thence at right angles with the general course of the river, and with Whiting's line for quantity.' On the 15th of November 1796, the entry was surveyed agreeably to its calls, and the survey was recorded on the 31st of May 1798. James Galt died intestate in 1800. In 1805, Elias Langham, under the authority, as he alleges in his answer, of Westfall, who made the original entry, withdrew four hundred acres of the warrant, on this entry, and located the same number of acres at another place, in the name of James Galt, heir, &c.
