CELEBRATED LAND SUIT AGAIN
WON BY KING.
LONG Drawn Out Case Results In
Pidmtlii'S Securing 100000
Acres OF Original 100000
Grant.

Commissioners John II. Graham
has fled his report in the celebrated
King case involving the ownership
of the Morris 800, 900 acre grant and
fixing the lines Of the survey accord
lng to the contentious of King and
his New York associates.
This case has been before the
commissioner for nearly year,
during which time a mass of testi-
mony has been taken In the effort to
settle the question of the property
boundary of the survey. The con-
testing defendants held for a line
running to Gilbert creek, which
would cut the survey down to about
$4,000 acres, while the King people
contend for a line that would give
them something over 400, 600 acres
of the original 500, 200 acres convey
ed by the grant. The fight has
been going on for the last ten years
and in one form or another has been
carried mp to the Supreme Court of
the United States three times.
The land lies in West Virginia.
Virginia and Kentucky. The trials
IN Virginia resulted in verdicts in
favor of King, and at the third trial
United States District Judge John
Paul, deceased, instructed the Jury
in favor of King. One trial at
Parkersburg before Judge Jackson,
resulted in hung jury, it being
reported at the time that one man
hung The jury against King. A
second trial before Uuited States
Judges Golf aud Jackson resulted,
after long trial, in the case being
thrown out of court by the ruling of
Judge Golf, declaring the land for
ieited TO the State.
