   [The plaintiff, Lanning, brought an action in ejectment against Isaac London, .Samuel Ferris, John Ferris, and Moses Rolph. There was a verdict in favor of plaintiff as against all except London, who was shown not to be in possession of any part of the premises-in dispute in that case. Case No. 8,074.
