LARKINS v. MILLER

Possession of part is possession of the whole, both parties having color of title.

HALL, J.

The possession of this quarter of an acre is the possession of all the disputed tract of which it is a part. Such possession will prevent the running of the act of limitations against the defendant. Both parties have color of title under different grants and deeds, and the perfect title is in him who has had the requisite possession.

Plaintiff suffered a nonsuit.
