among other cases decided was that

1t appears that Ambfouso contracted With
Keller for farm in Frederick county, in
January 1864. The contract was in
wiring and acknowledged the receipt Of
the purchase money. $1,000 in coniede-
rate notes Ambrouse, IN pursuance OF
the contract took possession of the land,
but, without receiving deed from Keller.
Amblouso dying, his heirs eued 70: 0
deed.
The Cour held that Keller should not
be compelled to execute deed TO Am
brousos hei,s, but only be required TO pay
them the sum that confederate money
was worth a, the time Of lie contract,
which is about 5000, with interest, and
tina, AmbrouSes heirs should pay Keller
rent for the land for the time they have
held it,"
