   Opinion by

Judge Hines :

In the absence of any allegation and of any proof that appellant was mistaken as to what land was intended to be conveyed by the deed which he himself drew, the deed in itself is sufficient evidence of the contract between the vendor and vendee, and sufficient evidence of the fact that the deed was accepted by the appellant.

Judgment affirmed.
