The cattle were on a range, and therefore not susceptible of an actual physical delivery to the donee ; but it appeared that the donor subset quently refused to sell the same because they belonged to the plaintiff; that the plaintiff gave money to her for the purpose of paying the taxes thereon; that he exercised acts of ownership; and that one of the defendants had recognized the title of the plaintiff. These facts were sufficient to sustain a verdict against the defendants, who’claimed under a subsequent incomplete and defective gift. Judgment on the main bill of exceptions affirmed; cross-bill dismissedAll the Justices concur.
The verdict was for the plaintiff. The defendants made a motion for a new trial, on the grounds that the verdict was contrary to law and the evidence, and to a specified instruction of the court; the motion was overruled, and they excepted. A cross-bill of exceptions was filed by the plaintiff.
