UNITED STATES CIRCUIT CouRr.-Tht,
Court was occupied great part Of last week
In the trial Of an action Of e}ectment, Benjamin
F. BrowQ rs. John A. Blanchard, brought to
+ recover kali Of Block twelve, school SECTION
addition to Chicago, described as that part Of
the block not eubdiyided. The property is
| valued at ten thousand dollars.

through each. To show title In the Browns,
plaintiff introduced patent from the
Governor Of Illinois to Paul Kingston.
| deed from Kingston to Augustus Garrett,
and deed from Garrett to the Browns. This
deed from GArett conveyed Block IL, except
LOT ! hcfetoloEe sold By Garrett Brown & Co..
lneteirom Defendants counsel contended
that plaintiff must locate lot !. This plaintiff
undertook to do, and one question was Whcth-
er he had sufficiently done so.
In deducing title from Nathaniel ]. Brown,
plain, showed Judgment rendered against
| and also execution and sale IN 1859, within T
years. He contended that thi. title must pre-
yailoEer tho defendants title, acquired by
virtue Of prior sale, under junior Judgment
u5ainst the same party.
Defendants counsel stated that the authori-
the position taken BY plaintiffs counsel was
the better law, providing the proceedings in
perfectng the title under the prior Judgment
were fair and regular.
But lie coutcnded that there were facts aud
circumstances connected with this second sale
void, Is to the creditors who had already OBJ
tanned title under the junior Judgment.
These facts and circumstances we're:
i. Ioadequacy Of prlce.-the block whicl. was
then WORTH over s / o6o having SOLD for 81, ~.
: Failure to sabdlside the block; # having been
3, The sale YVES at the Sheriff Office instead OF
the Court House door.
4: The execution was not returned til six ycars
s. The certificate Of sale was not flcd in the Ro
eordcr's Office until after the time Of redemption
.. Il was proven on the trial that the sliss exc
cu.ion on which the property was sold, WAS ordered
out by the plaint1ts attorney. at the instance Of
the defendant himself; thas the p'aintia knew
lothtng oE the matter. nua that the monty paid at
the salt, was paid by the defendant.
Connected with this branch of the case,
were some questions as to notice. Defendants
counsel con. ended that plaintiff WIS bound to
take notice Of all these facts, because defend
ants grantor was in possession when plaintiff
purchased,
Defendants counsel also introduced tax
title, founded upon 4 sale for city ta1ee, to
which various objections were taken.
The Court took the case under adgiscment,
'ei'h privilege to counsel to file written briefs
On either side

defendant.

do congregate, at the supposed center of trade.
