Will

November 1896:
Action by Caroline M Anderson against Samuel C Cave, David S Hair, Carrie C Farrell, Jennie Brown, T S Cave, W L Cave, and H B Cave.

It appears that the plaintiff is the daughter of the late Tarlton Cave, who, by his will, disposed of the land described in the complaint as follows: "Unto my son, John M Cave, Harrison B. ave, William L. Cave, Anderson T. Cave and Samuel C Cave, I give and devise all my lands and realestate share and share alike, to them and thir heirs forever; and I hereby direct that as soon after my death as it shall be practicable and convenient, my lands and real estate shall be valued and appraised by five disinterested an discreet persons, to be appointed by my sons, or a majority of them, and that after such appraisement, my said sons shall pay to Caroline M. Anderson and Imogene McDonald each one-eighth part of the appraised value of my said land and realestate." ... "It appears from the testimony that on 31st day of August, A.D. 1870, an action was commenced in the probate court for Barnwell County, in which John M Cave and the other sons of the testator were plaintiffs, and John Henry Anderson, his wife, Caroline Anderson the plaintiff hererein, and others, were defendants for the petition of the real estate of the said testator. The petition in said case is missing and is unaccounted for. ... The said commissioners made their return under their hands and seals, whereby they appraised the land of the testator, as tenants in common (why the land was assigned to the four sons of the testator, does not appear, though that seems to be immaterial to the present inquiry). On the 18th day of February, A.D. 1871, the probate court passed a decree confirming the commissioners return and making it the judgment of the court. On the day of January, A. D. 1872 the four sons of the testator, John M Cave, Samuel C. Cave, William L. Cave, and Harrison B. Cave executed among themselves a deed of partition of said land."
