Jude Taylor vs. Anthony J. O’Neil et al.
A declaration in trespass and ejectment must show the nature and character of the plaintiff’s estate.
Trespass and Ejectment. On demurrer to the declaration.
December 10, 1885.

Per Curiam.
The court thinks that the declaration should set forth the title of the plaintiff in terms so explicit that a judgment in his favor will determine the ehar acter of his estate, and not simply his right of possession. Stephens on Pleading, *304-308. Demurrer sustained.
Thomas W. Robinson, for plaintiff.
William H. Clapp, for defendants.
