They don't know what to do with

any other idea than that OF settling
down to the practice of medicine In
some part of the territory. They did

appeared as interVenOTS, claiming
prior liens, the former on the home
stead and the latter on the stock.
The referee decided that the transfer
Of the Oil shares of the GrOesbeck
company to Marsh was fraudulent, but
that 266 of the shares were dividend
stock and did not belong to Hyrum
Groesbeck, and that the remaining 645
shares be applied on the judgment held
by the plaintiff, and that if Marsh
could not turn over the actual shares
in lieu thereof he should pay $3.50 in
cash and the costs of the suit, amount
ms TO about 500.
IS TO the homestead, Referee Morse
held that the transfer to Mrs. Groes-
beck was also fraudulent and ordered
that the same be set aside and the
homestead applied on the judgment as
the property Of Hyrum Groesbeck.
There was no contention as to the
