EKentucky, suit was lermi-
5uaied involving 200 acre tract
sof land upon which the mining
stown of Jenkins stands, and
(which, with the improvements,
lis valued at $l,500,000. This
asuit was brought by William
Fillmore Addington and his
3wife, Nancy Ann Arlington,
aof Wise county, Va, against
sthe Consolidation Coal Com.
spany to recover for realty,
(which, through a technicality
sof conveyance has become
&entangled.
S The grounds upon which the
Faction was brought are some
$what tedious, and date from
DISCO, when the father of Mrs.
aAddiugton. Solomon Bentley,
aiicd in Pike county, Ky, leav-
hing the tract of land now in
dispute to his wife and only
aheir, the latter having two
7thirds of the tract of land and
sNhe widow the remaining one
third According to the stipu
Station Of Bentley's will, at the
age Of twenty one his daughter,
sswho during the interim had
slnarriei William fillmore 40
piington, was given possession
BIZ her share of.the land.
Some years after the death of
aPentley his widow remarked,
Band on June 3, 1884, she, her
husband and Mrs. Abingdon
coined in a conveyance of the
sland in question to John w.
Wright, better known as Devil
Slohn.' This deed of convey
sAnce was acknowledge, but not
Executed under seal, neither
,3iid Arlington enter into the
Conveyance. Later Wright sold
lhis tract with others to the
NORTHERN Coal and Coke Com
Spany, who in turn transferred
their holdings to the CONSOLE
aiation Coal Company.
x Now the plaintiffs seek to
Flaye the conveyance set aside
pn the grounds that the wife
l5fould make no legal convey
sance, because under the laws of
The state OF Kentucky, the
& husband must join with the
SNyife in II deed of conveyance
ssShen the property comes
sshrough her hands.
