Harramond v. M'Glaughon

1 N.C. 136

Opinion

By

The Court.

When a deed, patent or grant, describes a boundary from a certain point down a river, creek, or the like, mentioning also course and distance; should the latter be found not to agree with the course of the river, creek, &c. it ought to be disregarded, and the river considered the true boundary.

Verdict for the Defendant.
