as Attorneys McFadden and Eddy,
who represented the state at the time
the indictment was found, favored
the dismissal. stating that most of

The charge against Bray was that of
obtaining money under false pre-

their money lost what they put in
by the failure OF Bray to make full
payment on the property and the
same reverting to the original owners
Several of the local business men

In the Ives so-called counterclaim

cause of action in that the facts alleg-

wrongful refusal to transfer stock
constitutes a conversion of that stock

hanpened here. The term transfer
implies change of ownership. The
transfer sought was from Bertha

mains the same in both kind and in
