MRS. CULP WINS
title TO Fl I'M
Efforts of C. c. Gerhart Prove
Unavailing in Henrico Cir
cult Court.

Judge Scott, of the Henrico Circuit
Court, entered an order yesterday morn
ing in the case of C. C. Gcrhart against
Mrs Alma Culp, Diminishing the suit.
Gerhart sued for a share OF farm
occupied by Mrs. Culp, who is his sis
ter, since the Confederate War. Tho
property Is valued at about $1,000.
The evidence brought forth in the
case showed that Gerhart and his
father purchased the property, which
is on the Darbytown Road, in Henrico
county. before the war. After the war.
when the farm had been devastated by
the two armies, Gerhart went West and
was not heard of until two years ago.
when he returned to Virginia.
In the meantime a mortgage on the
farm had become due, and it was sold
under the hammer. Mrs. Culp pur-
chased it, and by her labor and econ
omy paid off all the debts for which
it was liable. She improved the prop
erty great deal. and it is now worth
at least double what 1t was when she
bought it.
! Besides taking charge OF the farm
Mrs. Culp provided for her parents FOL
|
| Her mother was wounded during III,
war and was an invalid until she died
| When Gerhart returned he elaine,
his share of the farm. and it was re
fused him. He had not been heard o
for forty years. and Mrs. Culp declared
that even il he had a claim in tn
property it would have been wipe,
out BY the mortgage, which she PAL,
! off. He claimed the statute of limita
tons on this question.
Judge Scott in his opinion state,
That Gerhart had no claim in the prop
erty' either under the first purchase O
as a legal heir, His long absence from
his home and absolute failure to pro
vide for his father during his lifetime
We're held reasons for excluding hin
from share under either claim.
