The opinion

Boardman, J.

I concur, believing that the representation of the construction and effect of a written instrument of an obscure or doubtful character is equally good as an estoppel, if believed, relied upon and acted upon, as is a disclaimer of title to the person about to purchase.

This is a copy of a public record, reproduced as it was published. It is not legal advice, and it may not be the version a court would rely on. Check the official source before you cite it.
