Grand Lodge of Georgia v. City of Thomasville
Supreme Court of Georgia
226 Ga. 4 (1970)
- Written by John Yi, JD
Facts
A certain deed described the transferred property as follows: Lot 196 in the thirteenth district of Thomas County, Georgia, beginning in the northwest corner of the lot running south about eight acres to a stake, then 20 chains east to a stake, then north about six acres to a road, then five chains west along the road, then north to the north line of a lot running east and west, then west to the starting point. On appeal, the defendant argued that the deed was invalid because the description of the land was too indefinite.
