Facts
Sarah Hodgkin (D), a widow, wrote to her daughter and son-in-law, the Brackenburys (P), and asked P to move from Missouri to Maine and care for her for the rest of her life. P was to have use of the farm and the household goods. D's letter stated that P could have the place when D passed away. P moved to Maine, lived on the farm, and cared for D. After several weeks, an argument ensued, and D asked P to leave. D then executed and delivered the farm deed to her son, Walter (D2). D2 took the deed with full knowledge of the agreement between D, and P. D served notice to quit upon P, but P refused to remove themselves from the farm. P sued to secure a reconveyance of the property. P obtained a judgment and D appealed.
