Gibson's Heirs v. Jones 5 Leigh 370, Supreme Court of Appeals of Virginia (April 01, 1834) 1834 (Absent Brooke, J.) Real estate is conveyed to trustees to secure payment of a debt; after the death of the debtor, the trustees proceed to sell the trust subject, to pay the amount claimed by the creditor; it appears, that the just amount of debt depends on accounts not yet settled, and so the amount due is unascertained, and there is reason to...   Cases
