Action brought by James Kirby

Among the witnesses are Chief OF

Kirby's behalf, in relation to his
mental condition about the time he
transferred his property to the
whiskey concern.
Kirby claims he was in a drunken
stupor and mentally unfit to transact
business at the time he signed a
deed for the property. He will en-
deavor to prove that he was physical
ly unable to take care of himself and
that he was in the charge of the po-
lice on account Of drunkenness. elm

by anticipates settlement.
The Eager concern received the
property from Kirby after a whiskey
bill, 1t is declared he owed them,
reached large proportions. They as
sumed claims against the place and
made alterations and improvements.
The land IN question contains a
three-story brick structure, now used
as saloon, restaurant, hotel and lodge

money was made on the transfer,
that the property was simply taken
to cover the bill and that when
claims were paid, 1t was found that it
had been taken at loss.
