4 TREMENDOUS LAW SUIT.
Three Thousand Nine MHnGred and
Twenty-f0ur Acres or Dallas
Suburban Property the
Bone Of Contention.

A petition inyolving the right to
some three hundred thousand dollars
worth ofreal estate, lying in and neigh
boring the fair grounds, was filed in
tho clerks office OF the district court,
In this city, ON the 18th of the current
month, by Morgan Il Word, attorneys
for the plaintiffs, ID. B. Grigsby, Maria
louisa Swindle and her husband, G.
G. Swindle, of Houston county, Texas.
The property involved in the litigation
embraces six hundred and forty acres
of the Sylvester survey, and three
thousand two hundred and eighty-four
acres of the league and labor contig-
lious to 1t. On this land stands, we
believe, the residences of Captain Gas
ton, Captain Jefferson Peak and Colo
mel Hughes, three Of the most princely
homes in this part of the state. 1t in
cludes the fair grounds, and many
other buildings in addition to those
named, The entire belt Is subdivided
into lots, and small tracts of one, five
and ten acres, which has been sold to
various parties residing in and near
thiscity, one only excepted, MIR. Asp
ley, OF Anderson county, The defend
ants, in all, number some three hun
dred and fifty. The action is grounded,
we are informed, upon very grave
defect In the title rs far back us TWEEN
ty years ago, and which was only dis
covered a few days since by accident.
The settlement Of this case by adjudi-
cation through the courts would be one
of immense interest, but we should be
| pleased, for the sake of those who have
purchased this land in good faith, and
have already erected some of the most
splendid residences in the state on the
same, If by procedure less harrassing
and expensive than the delays and un-
certainties of judicial forms, an UNDER
standing satisfactory and final could
| be contaminated.
