Free from the character of force, violence, or trespass; as, a “peace-able entry” on lands. "Peaceable posses-sion” of real estate is such as is acquiesced in by all other persons, including rival claimants, and not disturbed by any forcible at-tempt at ouster nor by adverse suits to re-cover the possession or the estate. See Stanley v. Schwalby, 147 U. S. 508, 13 Sup. Ct. 418, 37 L. Ed. 259; Allaire v. Ketcham, 55 N. J. Eq. 168, 35 Atl. 900; Bowers v. Cherokee Bob, 45 Cal. 504; Gltten v. Lowry, 15 Ga. 336
