29-5-1860 From the Times. Law Intelligence. Court of Chancery Appeal-Yesterday. Before the Lord Chancellor, the Lord Justice of Appeal, and the Hon. Baron Hughes. Hunt, owner and petitioner. This was an appeal from an order of the Landed Estates Court, made by Judge Dobbs, on the 13th Feb. last, by which Mr. Dixon O'Keeffe, was entitled to an conveyance of 154 statue acres, instead of 142, which quantity of land the owner and petitioner, Hunt, contended he had only purchased. Mr. Hunt was the owner of two denominations of land in the County of Tipperary, called Shanballyduff and Monara, which, on his petition, were disposed in the Landed Estates Court. Shanballyduff was divided into four lots, one of which (that above named Monara) constituted the fifth. The question in the case turned upon the description which had been given of the ground by the rental. The acreage of lot 1 was set forth as "142a,2r.6p. Statute measure", but in the appended column of observations it was stated to comprise 154 statute acres. Mr. O'Keeffe purchased the lot for a sum of £2,350, and the petitioner was declared the purchaser of lot 4. Subsequently the former claimed to have purchased in his lot a plantation containing 12 acres, but this was disputed by Mr. Hunt, who averred that the plantation formed no part of the property purchased by Mr. O'Keeffe, but that it had always remained in his own hands. The Judge decided that he (Mr. O'Keeffe) was entitled to the 154 acres. The appeal lay from this declaration. The Court varied the order of Judge Dobbs, by discharging the purchaser from his purchase.
