In most of the states which have not adopted the code procedure, ejectment is the method to try a title to land. This action has been freed from most of the fictions which formerly surrounded it, and it is sufficient in most states to allege in the pleading of the plaintiff that he is entitled to possession of the land, describing it, and that the defendant is in possession and wrongfully withholds it from plaintiff; concluding with a prayer for recovery and damages.
