HE SUED FOR POSSESSION
OF Property That Was still i'm HIS
own Name.

Justice Smock yesterday rendered his de-
cision in the case of c. T. W.. Poehler
against his son, Frederick Poehler, and
wife. The plaintiff sued for possession of
his property at 1926 South East street and
500 damages. The decision was for the
defendants. The case presents several
curious features. Poehler got drunk and
started TO whip his wife. His son took
up the fight and Poehler left home, return
ing for his overcoat, after which he stayed
away. His wife remained in the house and
Poehler claimed he was afraid TO return
for fear of personal injury. He left the
house voluntarily and brought suit for
possession. The decision for the defend
ants is on the ground that Poehler's pos
session of the property was undisturbed
and the allegations In his complaint not
borne out by the evidence. Had the de-
cision been for the plaintiff it would have
been for possession Of the property which
he voluntarily left and which was being
held by his wife, who was not a party to
the suit.
