Analysis

No analysis yet. When one exists it is a model's reading of this opinion — the rulings it reviewed, whether it agrees with the court, and the authorities it checked — shown beside the court's own disposition, never in place of it. How analyses are made.

Opinion — McKinstry

Mr. Justice McKinstry, presiding.

The words of the grant are very broad. We all think that this judgment will have to be affirmed. The language seems to be about as broad as it can be : that “ the timber thereon is hereby granted.” The only possible doubt would be as to whether “ timber ” included all trees and wood.

*193Hale & Craig, for Respondent.—There is no controversy as to that, I understand.

Mr. Justice McKinstry.—Judgment affirmed.
