¶2The facts of this case are substantially the same with those of the case of Lewis vs. Lewis. It was a bill in chancery praying for a decree of title from the person who had entered a quarter section of land, upon which the complainant had a right of pre-emption, but which pre-emption right was not allowed by the register and receiver.
