claims that Oussani. after making a
contract to sell TO his client, turned
around and made a contract to sell me
property 90 another PARTY Tor Soo,OOV
and that he is trying TO evade the hrst
contract.
Arthur ". Johnson, Of Mount Vernon
counsel for Oussani, IN his argument
before Justice keogh last week for an
order allowing him TO file a supple
mental answer setting up new facts
stated that the real reason that the So

other property, and that it has no need
for this Oussani land, but is simply
acting as GO between for Mr.. Rookie
Teller, who for years has desired TO get
the property in question.
