THE JUMEL ESTATE.
The following decision was rendered
in the Supreme Court today:
Bowen va. Chase ct. al. appeal from
the Circuit Court for the Southern Dis
trict Of New York. This was a suit in
equity, brought by Nelson Chase and 9TH
ers against George w. Bowen, having for
the principal object establishing their
title to certain lands in New York City,
known as the Jumel property, and to en-
join Bowen from prosecuting certain &C.
tions Of ejectment, One Of which was to
recover the property named, and others
to recover lands in Saratoga, belonging
10 the same estate. The court
held that the conveyance 10 Kingsland
and Martin for value by Madame
Jumel after the voluntary appointment
in favor Of her adopted daughter, Mrs.
Chase, were valid, being made under her
original power Of appointment, but that
the appointments 10 Hamilton and Phil.
lips are Ineffective. The decision 10 that
the appellee5 are not entitled to have the
real estate Of which Madame Jumel died
seized, appropriated to them in satiSfac.
tion Of the supposed fraud upon the rights
OF Mrs. Chase in the Kingsland and
Martin conyeyancea, nothing appearing
to show that such frauds were intended
or conSumated, but that in view Of the
void conyeyanCes TO Hamilton and
Phillips,l and Of the fact that
Madame Jumel remained in un-
disputed possession Of the property
up to the time Of her death, they we're
entirely justified in coming into a court
OF equity to have them declared. void.
The decree is reversed as 10 the effect Of
the conyeyauces to Kingsland and Mar
tin, and affirmed as to those to Hamilton
and Phillips, including a perpetual in
junction against Bowen, prohibiting him
from the prosecution OF an action or suit
for the recovery Of the particular estate
embraced in the appointment made in
favor Of Mrs. Chase by the deed Of 1928.
The claim Of the appellees to recover Of
Bowen the sum Of S2,500 alleged to have
been obtained by him from one Of Chase's
grantees by way OF q compromise is held
to be utterly groundless.
