So in a case, in Ohio, the court says : .“First, this is an agree*598ment without consideration and not binding; and, secondly, it is within the statute of frauds, and void. No interest in land, equitable or otherwise, passes by parol only. .True, a parol agreement executed by possession will be enforced. But an equi-. table interest once acquired in land cannot be parted with except by writing, or by the same means that it was acquired.” (Kelley et al. v. Stanbery et al., 18 Ohio, 408.)
