SUSTAIN TITLE
FOR 2ND TIME
CarloCk-Hatch Property Case
Finally Settled.

For the second time the title of
the Carlock-Hatch property, now
known as Perth Amboy Heights"
situated In the western part of the
city on Brace avenue, has been sus-
tanned in the Court Of Chancery at a
hearing held yesterday in the Chan
Gerry Chambers, Prudential building,
in Newark, before Vice Chancellor
Emery.
The tract Of land In question con-
sisted of about five hundred lots,
most of which have been sold and
the value Of the land in question is
between ninety and one hundred
thousand dollars.
History Brought Out.
The question in dispute related
to the construction Of deed made
In 1854. When Perth Amboy was
about the size of Fords. Quite
little history of the old times came
up before the Chancellor at the hear
ing. The deed In question contained
q clause wherein John Arnold con-
veyed in trust to Elias Gyrrell GER
tain premises for Elizabeth K.
Hatch, and her children and heirs at
law. The Counsel for the Complain
ant contended that the construction
of this deed meant to include all of
the children of the deceased son of
Elias Tyrrell, Nathan Tyrrell, who
died In 1851, three years before the
deed was made to Elias Tyrrell.
The Chancellor, however, would
listen to no such construction and
Immediately dismissed the bill
which asked for the partition Of the
property and imposed the costs on
the petitioner. The Complainant
in the suit was Mary Louisa Hatch,
wife of Elias T. Hatch.
Settlement Is Final.
1t was also brought out at the
hearing that the SUIT was merely
brought for the purpose of annoying
the present owners. A suit similar
to this was instituted In 1907, and
was also dismissed. 1t is now fl
nally settled no question can arise
as to the title of this property
The counsel representing the COM
plainant was Charles K. McNabb adm
William S. Angleman of Plainfield.
successful parties was Frederick G..
Burnham, formerly General Counsel
of the Mutual Life Insurance Com
pany, and Leo Goldberger, of this

receiving next highest, 233 votes.
For freeholder the Democrats of

for Casey, Ely, Fallon, Hendricks
and Kerr. Mr.. Fallon, who was rum
ning independent of the endorsement
of the county organization, was high
man with 314 votes.
On the Republican side there was
little interest shown, owing to the
lack of contest, excepting for the
nomination of freeholders. For NOM
nations for this board the following
were favored: Bennett, Cranston,
Dye, Feaster and Wilson.
On the local ticket interest cen

Democrat ticket with 102 votes
against "a for M. J. Leonard.
The Republicans had no candt-
dates for school commissioner print
ed on the ticket and their names had
to be written in. The three men Sc
lected were Samuel Locker, Charles
T. Mason and Edwin G. Roddy.
The greatest interest, of course,
centered in the nomination of sheriff
and 1t was somewhat of surprise to
the organization Democrats when
they found that Mr.. Burke had de-
feated Mr.. Bollschweiler in this city.
1t was expected that Patrick J. Fall
Ion, who was running independently
for freeholder, would make a good
run here as this Is his home city and
he is very popular.
There were no other contests for
any of the Offices and the names as
published on the tickets will become
the regular nominees for their re-
spective parties in November.
