The Mcdonald viii Has Been
Filled In Probate
Other Items OF Interest From
Temple Of Justice

A very important law suit, involv-
ing large interest in real estate To-
Gated in De Kalb County, Indiana, was
won by a former Fredericktown and
Bellville woman in the circuit court at
Auburn, Indiana, ON Thursday, when
Judge Powers of the circuit court rem
dered a judgment in favor of Mary NJ.
Frederick for the sum of S21 900 90.
The plaintiff was represented by Hon.
Lewis B. Houck of Mt. Vernon.
The plaintiff is the widow of Will
liam j. Frederick, who formerly lived
at Bellville, Ohio, and at the time of
his death was mayor of the city of
Garrett, Indiana. He was the owner
of business property in Garrett of the
value of $50,000.0O, and shortly prior
to his death in 1910, he made a lease
for so years to a daughter by a form
er wife, covering all of the property
in an attempt to prevent his wife and
three children aged five, seven and
twelve years, from Settlng any OF ms
estate. The question was a new one
and has been pending in the courts OF
Indiana for the past three years, but
the decision of Judge Powers, which
is final, awarded the widow and her
three children the sum of S21, 900.
Thus is ended one of the most com
plicated cases, and hard fought legal
battles, that the state of Indiana has
had for years, and it took three years
for the widow and her children to OBJ
tain their just and legal rights. Mrs.
Frederick is now a teacher in the
Ganapol School Of Musical Art, De,
troit, Michigan.

The Mt. Vernon team which went to
GAINESVILLE was made up of Dan Houck,
Russell Ewalt and Jay McDevitt with
Glenn Sparks as alternate. They sup
ported the negative side of the Ques-
tion and lost by to 0 vote of the
judges. The team composed Of Rus
sell Thrailkill, Dorothy Blair, and
Stanley Johnson, with Russell East
man as alternate, won at Mt. Vernon
by to vote of the judges.
The vote at Newark was 2 to l in
favor of GAINESVILLE. While the double
defeat drops Newark from the tied
position for first place, it does not set
them as low as GAINESVILLE, even
though the latter school won two
times last night. The best GAINESVILLE
can do next year if they win two and
Mt. Vernon loses two is to tie for
first place. They can go one point
ahead of Newark if that school loses
two.
The local debate between Mt. Yer.
non and Newark Friday evening was
one of the most interesting of the
entire series. 1t was hard fought but,
in the opinion of many, the locals won
all the way. They not only had the
strong points to offer as proof, but
their delivery was more forceful and
was better than that of that of their
opponents. Mt. Vernon supported the
affirmative side of the question in the
debate against Newark
j. Dale McNamar was Newark S
hope. He was by far the strongest of
Newark's team and had every member
of the visiting three been his equal,
the result of the debate might have
been different. This statement should
not be construed to the effect that the
other members of the Newark team
were weak. On the other hand they
were strong and able. AS matter of
fact, however, Mr. McNamar was con-
siderably out of the ordinary as high
school debater and, had he been fur
nished by his coach with several more
strong points in support of his side OF
the question, he might, by his individ-
ual effort, have swung at least one
judges vote in favor of Newark.
There was little to choose among
the Mt Vernon team when consider
ing ability, Miss Blair is the more
experienced of the three and, perhaps
was a trifle more able in her delivery
The points in the argument had been
about evenly distributed among the
three so no one had very good op
portunity to outshine the other. II

A Big Crowd Heard The De-
bate In This City

The sixth annual triangular debate
between teams representing Mt. Yer
non, Newark, and GAINESVILLE took
place Friday evening with GAINESVILLE,
like last year, the most victorious of
the three. Mt. Vernon lost unanimous
ly at GAINESVILLE and won unanimously
over Newark in Mt. Vernon. Newark
lost both here and at home. Zanes-
vile won both sides of the question
which was:
Resolved, That the Short Ballot
Should Be Adopted in All Municipal
Elections" A provision to the ques-
ton was that the maximum number of
offices to be filed at any election
should be five.
Until Friday evenings debate Mt.
Vernon and Newark were tied for
honors in the debates that have been
held previously. GAINESVILLE was con-
siderably behind owing to bad start.
