Holding
The court held that an administrator may properly maintain an action to quiet title to the decedent's real property, that a general denial in an answer to an unverified complaint in such an action properly places the plaintiff's own title or interest at issue, and that an affirmative defense asserting an equitable interest in the property must contain sufficient allegations to establish that interest.
