1964“We approach this question from the standpoint of the rule laid down by Judge Wheeler in Baker v. Coe, 20 Tex. 429 : “ ‘Presumptions must be indulged in favor of those proceedings, especially when they are ancient, and titles have been acquired and transmitted under them, or it would indeed be true that time, instead of healing, as it should, the defects of these titles, would gradually undermine, and eventually destroy them.’ “It is difficult to assume a state of facts which' would call more strongly for the indulgence of a presumption of the very existence of the judgment, if this were neces

1975Ordinarily, such a presumption is one of fact, but as the court said in Clements v. Texas Co., 273 S.W. 993, 998 (Tex.Civ.App.—Galveston 1925, writ ref’d): “. . . but such a presumption, having to do with a transaction 80 years in the past, becomes, for all practical purposes, one of law, for generally the great age which raises the presumption also obliterates the evidence which might have overthrown it.” Stated in a different way the former great Chief Justice of the San Antonio Court of Civil Appeals, the Honorable W.
