The first hour moved through an un-

A QUESTION Of

RIGHT TO SELL

OUT IN COURT WITH REFER
ENCE TO THE SELVlDGE sUSl-
NESS COLLEGE PROPERTY.

Since the Selyidge Business College
went out of business, the property
has been on the market in the hands
of two realty dealers, acting as
agents, Prof. Slevidge himself acting
as agent for the owners, and also
r. A. Fox had the property listed
for sale.
Doctors Son and Won Keller, pro-
prietors of the Rose CroiX hospital,
finding that they desired larger quar-
ters. made a deal with Prof. Selvidge
for the property, and after terms had
been arranged. gave a check as part
payment on the agreed price.
Il seems that two property owners
of this yicinity,-Messrs Fraley and
Dunlap-do not desire a hospital To-
Gated near their property, and enter
ed into a deal with r. \. Fox, whom
il is claimed was acting as agent for
the property. and likewise purchased
the property.
II is probable that a legal battle
will be waged to settle the question.
The property in question is valuable
and is we'll suited to the purpose for
which the doctors desire it,
