Opinion

Faville, J.

One C. D. Beeman was a widower, about 66 years ,of age. He had four children. On the thirty-first of March, 1894, he married a widow in the state of Vermont, who had six children. The youngest of said children was a daughter, the appellant Mattie, who, after the marriage, came to Waukon, Iowa, and continued thereafter to live with her mother and stepfather for some eight or nine years. She was about fifteen years of age at the time, and her stepfather became very fond of her. She subsequently married one Stilwell. She is the appellant in this action. Her mother is the appellee. Beeman had little acquaintance with the other children of his second wife. On the third day of July, 1897, Beeman executed and delivered to his wife the deed which is the subject of controversy in this action. In order to clearly present the question involved, we attach hereto a photographic copy of said deed.
