Pierce v. Williams

3 N.J.L. 709
Supreme Court of New Jersey·Decided November 15, 1810·Published

Opinion

By the Court.

— The return is too vague and uncertain ; it ought to describe the part allotted to the widow, by metes and bounds, whenever the subject matter is capable of being so described; a particular end of a house or barn, or a third of an orchard will not do. Writ of return quashed.
