Syllabus

<p>Corporations — Cemetery companies — Place of business — Validity of charter — Attach by individual — Quo warranto by State.</p> <p>1. Where the court of common pleas has entered a decree granting a charter, the company is a de facto corporation, and the validity of its formation can be attacked only by the attorney general.</p> <p>2. It seems that, in an application for a charter, the place at which the business is to be carried on should be definitely fixed in a municipality or district having a post office through which communication with the corporation may be had. The designation of a county is insufficient.</p>

Judges: Frazer, Sadler, Schaefer, Simpson, Walling
