IRONDALE FURNACE PROPERTY
Bought in by the Daughter of the
Former Owner, Col. Felix Nemegyei.
PARKERsBURG. w. Va. DC

5 PARKERsBURG, w. Va, DC
After lengthy and complicated
litigation, replete with details of a
most interesting character, a portion
of the Irondale furnace property, in
Preston county, has been saved for its
owner. the aged Felix Nemegyei, the
Americanized Prussian count.
The property, personal and real,
was sold by Charles r. Durham, the
receiver appointed by Judge Jackson,
Of the Federal Court. to Conrad & Co.,
Of Philadelphia. Subsequent to that
transaction Mrs. Adile De Billier, of
New York, cultured and brilliant
woman, daughter of the count, and
wife of the son of the head Of Paris
banking house, who conducts branch
bank in New York, filed an upset bid
of ten per cent. in advance Of what
Conrad had bid on the real estate alone
Judge Jackson rendered decree ac-
cepting the upset bid, and Mrs. De
Billier, who arrived here just in time
TO prevent a confirmation of the sale,
paid over to-day $500 in currency.
This sale does not interfere with the
purchase of the Irondale furnace and
railroad on the property which was
made to Conrad, but it ends hard le-
gal contest for the property, and sue
cess crowns the efforts of loving
daughter to save the estate OF her dis
tinguished father, that he and his
wife may remain there undisturbed
and in peace the balance of their days.
