After his widow's death executors sold his land to Dr. John Johnston, who sold to orator. William Johnston's son John (now deceased) got possession of part of the land, where he lived until his death in 1797, dying intestate. Shackelford and wife are non-residents. Molly Johnston answers that the executors sold some land to Dr. Johnston, but could not have sold the land claimed by plaintiff because her husband, John, has been in quiet possession when she first became acquainted with him, which was 18-20 years before William's death and 30 years before John's death. Malachia Lax (Lex) and Margaret answer.
