sold aud undertook to convey said
land to one Joseph Crooks, but
that the deed made, aud the
description of said land therein
was erroneous, and does not in fact
describe the said land intended to
be conveyed, describing it as To-
Gated in township N(51)" when it
was intended to convey the lands
hereinbefore described. That plain
tiffs are, in fact, now the right
full owners of said land, by a sue
cession of conveyances from said
Joseph Crooks, who obtained title
thereto through John s. Bishop as
aforesaid and they have succeeded
to the aforesaid rights of the said
Crooks as purchasers and assignees
thereof; that the said John 5. Bis
hop and his wife, Elizabeth A. Bis
hop, are long since deceased; and
that there are, and plaintiffs verify
believe there are, persons inter
ested in the subject matter of the
petition herein whose names they
cannot insert therein, because they
are unknown to them; that such
unknown parties are the heirs of
the said John s. Bishop, deceased,
and the interests of said unknown
parties in the subject matter of
this petition are such interests as
they may have as heirs'of the said
John s. Bishop, but the number
of said unknown heirs aud their
relation to the said John s. Bish-
op the plaintiffs are unable to
state, and therefore are unable to
give the extent OF their several in
terests and how derived further
that as above stated 1t is there
fore ordered by the clerk of this
court in vacation that publication
be made notifying the said un-
known heirs of John S. Bishop,
and now therefore you unknown
heirs of John s. Bishop, are here
by notified of the fling of this
suit, the object and general ma
ture of which is to obtain a decree
of this court vesting in them the
