InTrnup Sup rior Court. term 1836.
The complainant alleg s, in ins hill of com
plaint, that on the llrii day of Ma- , 1831, and
tor along time previous thereto, he had he or iri
the peaceable, quiet a <t uninterrupted posses
sion (except a solitary effort of defendant to
force the same from him) of a lerr across the
Chattahoochee riv r, a; the town of \V st Point
in said cou ty, k own as Broadnax's ferrv.
That complainant held poss< ssio ■ f one halt and
said ferry in his own rigid ; to wit ; the western
bank of said river, on which the western ferry
landing of said river is situated, and the right to
use the same, as a, ferry la,- ding, with one half
f the ferry f oat used v %r, said ferry, i coni ey
ing persons across the same, tog.-iher with the
• litre fraction or parcel oi fi.ud, on which said
ferry la .ding js sitini'e, by virtue oi a convey
ance to complainant, from on Christ tphe
B >w n an 1 others, who purch .serf the sain
from the st rte of Georgia, at the Iracti n sal -
ii Miiletlgevi 1 , dnri g the year 1839, and w o
hel tire certificate of the commission) rs r.p
pointed by the legislature to s 11 and dispose
of said fraction, with others. That - id Chris
topher Bow r, together with his associates
transferrer, and delivered to complainant, the
said certificate, there y conveying t him ;.!l
thvii right, title and interest in and to tin s~
ter ferry landing ol said f riv ; th< ir nit rest
in said ferry; said ferry boat, ad the. e; tir
f actio i on which the western f try iandi g oi
the s .me is situated.
It is also alleged by complainant, in his said
bill of complains, that he held th ea t r hank
of said river, whereon the eastern ferry lancing
of s.iid ferry is situate, the remaining half ol
said ferry and ferrv boat, by an express agree
ment With the defendant (who nr th..t time
claimed to own it in his own right) that he
(complainant) should use ad keep said ferry ]
ontire, and receive the tolls arising therefrom,
and account to him (the and; I: :>dant) for o.ie
half of the nett profits of the ao.e.
It is further alleged by complainant tha’, dur
ing the time he was holding one h if ol said
ferry, in his own right as aloresai , as his oil
property, ad the other half, by tin exprtss
agreement, as aforesaid, with delendant, he,
(complainant) was, on the 1 Ith day .f May
1834, by the deputy sheriff of said county, a t-j
ing under the authority of a hill of qiotlemcn!, \
issuing from this court at th irs a ee of tli
defendant, deprived of the possession f said
ferry and eveiy part thereof, and the entire pos
session ol th same given to the defendant,who
has continued toe joy the sole, entire ii and n
- use ad possession of the same, as w ell
as the emoluments arisi g therefrom. It is
charged by complainant, that said bill of quilte.
menl, issui g fioui this court, was (antoi.oi to
the filing of hi-said bill ofcomplai t) regul rl>
dismissed and fully cniltri ; ami that n e defen
dant withholds ami r fuses to p:.y ov r to tin
complainant, any portio or part *t the profits
of said fi rry, hut applies the same to hisowi
individual use.
It is further alleged, that defendant is totally
i solvent and u lie to respond to the compla n
ant, for the rents and profits oi said ferry, re
ceived by him as aloresaid, amounting i nil
to a huge sum of money ; and without the
interposition of the court, he will la; entirely
remediless in the premises. *
The complain int fuither charges, in bis said
bill of complaint, that since the 1 th day ol
May. 1834, he has paid into the proper office
all the money due upon s id eertrfic >e, and
has obtained from the state of Georgia, a grant
in his own name, forfracdional lor of land num
