Judge Wales Renders Verdict In Favor
of the Defendnnts-D -DIsnnted for Yrnrs

ant decision in the dispute over the Old
Foundry property at Tenth and Orange
streets, now owned by Josiah Norris The
decree was in favor Of the defendants. the
complainant TO pay the costs. The case
has been in the courts for about three
years. Argument was made in the United
States Court last July, by counsel on both
sides. George II. Bates and H. G. Brad
ford, Esqs., were counsel FOR
the complainant and w. C. Spru-
ance sand Anthony Higgins, Esqs., for
the defendants. The case is as follows
James Il. Rice was the complainant and
John v Rice and Josiah Norris the de-
PENDANTS. The suit was brought to es.
tablsh and enforce an alleged vendors
Lien on the property.
James Il. Rice and John v. Rice were
partners in the business OF iron founders
OF this place previous TO September
1864. In that month James H. Rice sold
his interest TO his brother, John V. Rice
In payment James was to
receive $500 year for ten
years, should he live so long, and
50. 600 at the end Of the ton years. II he
did not live out the ten years his heirs
were % receive, at the conclusion of that
time, the 80 600, less $500 for each year
after the date Of the dissolution Of the
partnershipunt the date Of James death.
As security for the payment Of the
$o,OOO, James took the note Of his
brother John for that amount for ten
years, with Theodore Hyatt of West
Chester Pa, as surety In 1860 John v.
Rice borrowed on mortgage $l2 600 and
~, 900 from Josiah Morris and in 1867 he
borrowed $40 000 moro from Norris.
In default OF interest on the last mort
gage, judgment wss obtained by Morris

property was sold by the sheriff 10 Morris
for 49, 100.
The complainant holds that Morris
purchased the property with full knowl
edge that the 80, 600 and interest, the
consideration Of the sale by the com
plainant TO his brother John. had never
been paid, and that the property was
subject TO a lien for that amount in favor
of the complainant.
The defendant denied all knowledge OF
this and held that the taking Of the note
was in lieu Of any lien; and that tho note
had been Settled by Theodore Hyatt
Other legal reasons were also given why
the lien should not stand.
The decree Of the court dismissed the
bill of the complainant II held that no
lien existed If il had it was satisfied
by the complainant taking the third
party as security No lien had been re
tanned or intended TO be retained by the
complainant and none attached by the
