CASE DECIDED case of John
II. Skillman ct al. against Robert
Costello was decided in favor of the
plaintiff in the Circuit Court of Loudoun
county on Saturday. This case had
been before the Circuit Court of the
county at the last term, when the jury
was unable to agree as to the heirshlp OF
of John II. and Bushrod Skillman, OF
Spokane, Wash, to the late IraVerS
Carter, of Loudoun county, who died III
testate in 1892, possessed OF large
landed estate. The case involves the
title to a farm of 500 acres. purchased
several wears ago by Mr.. Robert Costello,
ofLoudoun county, from Mr. Edwin );
Carter of Maroa, ILL.,, who represented
himself as the sole heir to the Carter
estate. Later the death of Travers
Carter came to the knowledge Of the
Skillmans, who claimed to be the half
brothers of the deceased, and thereupon
instituted suit to recover their interest
from the purchaser, Mr.. Costello. An
issue out of chancery was made up to
determine the fact of heirship, and this
was decided in favor of the Skillmans by
the jury on Saturday.
