hart became partners in a business en-
terprise- For twenty-five years all
went along smoothly. But in 1919
James alleged that Emory was getting
the better of him. The partnership
was dissolved and James began an &C.
tion to recover the amount ont OF
which he alleged he had been swindled.
The action was fought up and down the
state and federal courts and finally
James secured Judgment for Sl4, 1873.
Emory Lockhart was at one time one
of the wealthIest men in the neighbor.

lawing. the sheriff, in attempting Il
collect the Judgment. found that h,
was without property. Lockhar
claimed to the sheriff that ne was ut
terly without property and had but
nineteen cents in cash.
James has now asked that Emory b,
declared an involuntary bankrupt. ant
the matter is before Judge McLaugh
