Description
This is a suit to construe a mineral deed executed in 1929 by Mr. and Mrs. Frank Koncaba in favor of Walter A. Mang. The Alfords and others are successors of the Koncabas, the original grantors. Minnie Krum and others are the successors to Mang, the original grantee. After a non-jury trial, the trial court rendered judgment construing the deed to mean that the Koncabas conveyed only an undivided one-sixteenth mineral interest in an 85.9 acre tract. The court of appeals, with one justice dissenting, reversed the judgment, holding that the Koncabas conveyed a one-half interest in the permanent mineral estate. 653 S.W.2d 464. We reverse the judgment of the court of appeals and affirm the judgment of the trial court.
