.BASSF0RDS' ANSWER
IN SUIT OF SENIOR
Property in. City Creek Canyon
Valued at 100000 Involved
in Litigation.

An answer has been filed by II. E.
Bassford and wife in the suit brought
against them by F. j. Senior in the

defendants held in trust for him prop
erty in City Creek canyon which was
valued at 100000. and. in violation of
the trust, sold the property.
In their answer the Bassfords assert
that the property was purchased on
October 4, 1905, when they were, with
L. III. Gray, partners with Senior IN the
firm of +. j. Senior & Co. Bassford
says that he advanced money TO carry
on the business and was given the title
to the land as security. He had himself
paid the 1929 necessary to the State
Engineer TO get the title. In March
Senior came into his office and repre-
property at a good price who was going
at once to Los Angeles and could not
wait, He then asked Bassford 10 sign
the agreement OF trust so that he might
show the prospective purchaser that he
had a right 10 sell the land Having.
he states, every confidence in Senior
at that time, he did sign it, but he had
atterward found that there never was
any prospective purchaser and that Sen.
Tor only made the representations 10
secure the agreement which he fraudu.
lently holds. The Bassfords admit that
the property was finally sold to one J
+. Marshall for a good price, but claim
that they had a right to so sell IT, They
also have counter-claim for the 1929 26
which they advanced to the FIRM.
