Opinion

Johnston, Judge,

The cases cited to prow this a delivery do not come up to what is wished. This is not a del'mry in law, and I believe, from the circumstances, was not so intended by the father. He knew a deed without delivery was not t ffcctual, but his children who were dissatisfied at the prospect 0/ his marrying again, did not know it, and the old man adopted this mode of procuring his peace.

Decree according to the ptaycr of the bill.
