Syllabus

<p>Trusts — Resulting Trust — Evidence—Sufficiency. A resulting trust in lands will not be declared where the evidence is not clear, certain and conclusive and so cogent as to leave no reasonable doubt, especially where nearly fifty years elapsed since the transaction occurred.</p> <p>Appeal — Review—Harmless Error. On a trial de novo, error in the exclusion of a deposition which is brought up on appeal is harmless.</p>
