Harlan, May 1S.-There IS scheduled

George Wilson, q farmer of this and
Audubon counties, who, it Is alleged,
was swindled out of the land and cash
in Omaha, where he went for little
recreation and where according to the
petition on file in the case, he was
frightened after having perhaps in
dulged in some little indiscretion.
The action in this court is against
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles NJ. Reece some
times known as Mr.. and Mrs. C. M.
Reeser," of Omaha, and recites also
that one James Chadwick and Edith
Ball conspired with the defendants to
defraud Wilson out Of his farms and
money.
Wilson Buys Immunity.
1t is recited that Wilson was ac-
cused of having violated the law and
that he was about to be prosecuted on
a criminal charge; that two men ap-
preached him, one representing him
self as the sheriff of, Douglas county,
(Omaha), and the other the county at
torney of the same county to whom
he relinquished his wealth on the
promise of protection and immunity
from arrest.
Wilson, after his disastrous visit to
Omaha disappeared and was gone for
months and until the Recess or
Reesers of OMAHA attempted to dis
pose of one of the farms formerly
owned by Wilson, his disappearance
was a mystery. This precipitated an
investigation and John christensen
was appointed guardian for Wilson
and it lis in his name that this action
against the Recess or Reesers was
brought.
1t is charged in the petition that
there was no money consideration in
the transfer of the land but that Will
son decided the farms thru duress and
threat. -
