Lower Courts Reversed in the
Langevin and Davidson
Will Cases.
An Unusually Important
Batch Of Supreme Court
Decisions.

Nine very important decisions were
handed down by the honorable judges
Of the supreme court yesterday, three
of which reversed the orders of the
lower court. The most important case
was that of The City of st. Paul VS.. The
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul Rail-
way, in which the city appealed from
the ruling of the lower court, but
sustained an adverse ruling in the high
er tribunal. The case involved the right
TO some of the property over which it is
proposed to build the Broadway bridge.
The railroad company also laid claim to
the property, pleading that it had
been forfeited by the statutes of limita-
ton. The city authorities also claimed
that municipal property was exempt
from the statute of limitations, and took
they were ready to build the
bridge and establish a highway
over the land involved. The railroad
company then stepped in and claimed
some of the property over which the
bridge was to pass. An action was en-
tered in the district court, and a de-
cision was given there that the statute
of limitations did apply to municipal
property in the same manner as to that
owned by private persons. From this
ruling the city appealed, but the SUI
preme court yesterday affirmed the rul-
ing of the lower court so that the city
will now be compelled to condemn and
purchase the property to gain possession
Of it. The land could have been claimed
by the city at any time during the
twenty years fixed as the statute of linn
itatiOn, but the neglect to do so will in
volve the city in great expense. The

I for Improvements made after the death
of Davidson, the testator. This ruling
the supreme court reversed.
In the Langevin case. the creditors of
the son of Edward Langevin gained
their point, the court ruling that the
probate court was in error in refusing
permission to the creditors to contest
the will of Edward Langeyin. Chief
Justice Gilfillan in writing the decision
said:
In September, 1890, Edward LangevIn
died seized of large amount of real
estate in Ramsey county, and leaving
son, George w. Langevin. In April
and September, 1889, G. w. Youngman
recovered judgments against the son in
the district court, which were docke ted
at the times OF rendition SO as to be-
come liens on all real estate the SON
might have or thereafter acquire in the
county. In October. 1890, the widow
of Edward Langevin filed will
in the probate conrt. by which
Edward Langevin devised all his
property to others than his
son George. Youngman appeared to
contest the will and filed objections to
its probate on the ground that it
was procured by undue influence
and that the testator was of unsound
mind. The sole question now involved
is his right to contest the allowance of
the will. "All persons interested" may
contest the probate of a will, sec. %,
CHAP. 46, Laws 1889. The interest which
shall entitle one to oppose the will must
be an interest in the real estate to be
affected by it which the law will recOg-
niZe.
A general creditor of an heir has no
interest in the real estate falling to the
heir, though his ability to collect his
claim might be thereby increased. But
he has no vested right, claim or inter-
est, to be established or defeated by
the probate or rejection of the will.
But the case of a judgment creditor
of an heir is different. If the deceased
left no will, the judgments of Young
man become at once liens on the heirs
share of the real estate. The probate
of spurious will would concluSively
unseat the liens. So that il this will be
proved 1T will defeat his liens, if re-
jected it will establish them. A judy
ment creditor has always the right to
aSSail or defend against anything which
may diveSt his lien.
The action of the probate court on
Youngman'S objection is quaShed. and
that court will allow him to contest the
will on those objections.
The syllabi of the two cases and the
balance of the decisions are as follows:
In the matter of the last will and testament
of Edward Langevin, deceased. Action Of
probate court quashed. GILFILLAN, G. J.
Syllabus-The creditor in a Judgment
against the heir of one dying seized of real
estate, which in the absence of Will would
pass to his heir has an interest that entities
him to contest the probate of proposed
will of deceased, which, if probated, will de-
feat the lien of his judgment.

after the landlord executed and deliv-
cred a new lease to like effect upon the
expiration of the old, in which he made
special mention of said building as
erected upon the leased premises, and
as part thereof, his adverse entry upon
the premises was, at least, as early as
the day on which the new lease took
effect. The landlords adverse occu-
pancy and hostile possession must have
commenced when his tenants entered
under the new lease.
Third-M and those who succeeded
him made certain deeds and leases,
while holding adversely to plaintiff by
mistake as to the boundary line, in
which the premises conveyed and de-
missed were described as the eaSterIy
thirty-eight feet of lot II, excepting the
easterly two feet previously conveyed,

undisputed testimony in this case, it is
held that the adverse possession of the
premises in dispute for the statutory
period, although by different persons,
was connected as we'll as continuous,
so that the possession Of the trae owner
did not intervene at any time.

Svllabus-Eyidence held sufficient to sus-
tain the findings of the fact. A disseizor in
possession has an interest in the land which
he may transfer with the possession to
another, or which on his death will pass to
his heir. One in adverse possession of land
may purchase the title of one person against
whom he is holding adversely without aban-
doning his adverse holding as TO the title Of
another person. The statutes or limitations
are under see. II, tit ., ch Go, Gen. st. 1873,
and the amendment by CHI. a. Laws 1851, to
sec. % of said title, applicable to actions
brought by the stale or munic-
ipal corporation, whether brought
in what is called "a sovereign
capacity or Ill proprietary capacity. The
exceptions to the running of the statute of
limitations contained in section 10 of said
title do not apply to the eases specified in
section II, but only to cases where the time
TO commence the action begins to run when
the cause of action against the defendant ac-
crues Under section the time begins at
the time of the diSseizin. and not al the time
when the particular defendant might have
been sued ana continues to run while the
disseiZip continues.
And as the disseizor or his successor in
the adverse holding, may continue the adj
against whom the owner may have his action

GILFILLAN, G. j.

sustain the finding of the court as to
the proportions in which the parties
owned real estate. In patent of land
the name was given LIE elaine instead
of LIE Claire, the true name. AS both
parties claim under the patent as
though the name were LIE Claire, that as

construe an entry of land to have been
