Bill of Complaint in Johnson et al. v. Snow et al, [Law papers].

Summary: The heirs of Joseph Davis retained Lincoln and sued the heirs of Marcus Snow in a bill of chancery to collect money misappropriated by Snow while he was the administrator of Davis's estate. The Davis heirs charged that Snow failed to file an estate inventory with the probate court, then sold real and personal property for over $25,000 without properly accounting for the proceeds to the estate's heirs. The court dismissed the case after the Davis heirs failed to comply with an order to amend their bill of complaint within ninety days.
