Forcible entry and detainer, \u00a7 87 \u2014when evidence insufficient to show defendant's possession. In an action of forcible detainer to recover possession of premises, the defendant owning an adjoining tract, and a house being built on about the center of the two tracts, evidence held to sustain finding of trial court that defendant was not guilty of forcible detainer after demand for possession, it appearing that the defendant had moved into his portion of the house, and the only evidence tending to show that he was in possession of plaintiff\u2019s premises being that the constable who served the notice saw some cows and calves on the premises, and that defendant was residing in part of the house but he did not know which part.\nAppeal from the Circuit Court of DeWitt county; the Hon. William G. Cochean, Judge, presiding.\nHeard in this court at the April term, 1913.\nAffirmed.\nOpinion filed October 16, 1913.\nStatement of the Case.\nAction of forcible detainer by Gertrude H. Kelsey against Frank M. Palmer to recover possession of premises formerly belonging to defendant but after-wards acquired by plaintiff under a master\u2019s deed.

From a judgment in favor of defendant, plaintiff appeals.\nJohh Fuller, for appellant.\nLemon & Lemon, for appellee.\nSee Illinois Notes Digest, Vols. XI to XV, same topic and section number."
