## Opinion text

KING, J.
(dissenting).
I agree with Associate Justice BROOKE in the affirmance of this case, but am not prepared to hold that the notary’s certificate of the acknowledgment of Nancy West, Emily Conn, and Mary Ann Lewis to the quitclaim deed, on the 18th day of Marc-h, 1859, is sufficient, as I believe that, under the decisions of the 'Supreme Court of Texas, this certificate is fatally defective.
