December Term, 1851

THIS case was also, like the preceding one, brought up from the Court of Appeals of Maryland, by a writ of error issued under the 25th section of the Judiciary Act.
The circumstances of the two cases were the same. In both, Winchester was the trustee who sold the share to Oliver, and the same act of Assembly applied to both. The judgment and reasons of the Court of Appeals covered both cases, and they were argued in this court together by the same counsel.
Mr. Justice NELSON delivered the opinion of the court.
