Syllabus
<p>SYLLABUS BY THE COURT.</p> <p>Title and Ownership — Suit to Quiet Title — Pleading in Equity. Equity permits a suit for discovery and relief; therefore, where the petition in a suit in equity to remove a cloud and quiet title to real estate is sufficient, except that it does not plead the title under which defendants claim, but states that the nature, character or extent of it is unknown, and prays that defendants be required to disclose such title in their answer, the petition states a good cause of action for discovery and relief.</p>
