Syllabus

<p>SYLLABUS BY THE COURT.</p> <p>1. Deed — Menial Incapacity of Gh-antor — Evidence. The evidence examined and held to tend to show a grantor’s want of mental capacity tó make a deed.</p> <p>2. Same — Mental Incapacity — Undue Influence. Upon appeal from a judgment setting aside a deed, if a finding that it was made while the grantor was without mental capacity is sustained, questions of error affecting only a finding that undue influence was exercised upon him become immaterial.</p> <p>3. Same — “Adequate Consideration” — Legally Sufficient. A finding that the consideration of a deed was not adequate does not mean that it was not legally sufficient.</p>
