Evans v. Leis

Supreme Court of Pennsylvania

Decided March 13, 1882

Supreme Court of Pennsylvania · decided 1882-03-13

Scire facias sur mortgage by Charles V. R. Evans, administrator de bonis non cum- tes'amento annexe of John Van Reed, deceased, against Henry Leis and Daniel Schell, terre tenants.

Decided 1882-03-13

— Per Curiam :

¶1The bond showed that the amount secured by it was really an advancement to the wife of the obligor, and the condition very clearly indicates that it was to be paid only if one of the events mentioned should take place. Now the event which has taken place, namely, the death of Henry Leis before his wife without leaving any children, is not among these events. It is evident, then, that the charge of the Court below was right.

¶2Judgment affirmed.
