that said defendants bad not conveyed the south-east

} fee to the tract of land referred to, but that they have
positively rctused so to do ; that be has presented a deed
1 for the south-east quarter of the s'-uth-west quarter of
, section thirty-luur, in township fifteen north, of range
I thirty-one west, but the said defendants positively re
b fused to sign and seal the same ; the said complainant’s
bill prays that the said defendants be made parties to
the said bill of complaint, and that thc said defendants
> and their confederates, when discovered, may, upon
their corporal oaths, to the best of their knowledge, re-
> membrancc and belief, full, true, direct, and perfect
