A deed is effective without manual delivery where it was executed by a father to his minor children, during his last sickness, at the time of executing a will of all his other property, and with the expressed intent of conveying the property.</p> <p>Executors — Sales—Bona Fide Purchasers. The rule of caveat emptor applies to purchasers at an executor’s sale of real property, who take only the interest of the estate.</p>
