Cochran's Verdict
Affirmed by u. s.
Appellate Court

The United States circuit court OF
appeals at Cincinnati in the case oil
Beaver Creek Consolidated Coal Com
pany versus the Webb heirs on Wed
uesday affirmed a decree rendered by
Judge A. NJ. j. Cochran Of the United
States district court, entered about
one year ago. involving the title to
400 acres OF choicest Elkhorn by-pro-
duct coal on Beaver creek in Floyd
county,
This litigation has been in state and
federal courts for nine years and has
been watched with great interest thru
out the entire Big Sandy valley coal
section of Kentucky on account OF the
Importance of the question involved
as effecting titles as coal properties,
Every resident of the Big Sandy val
ley and coal region of Eastern Ken
lucky was vitality interested in the
outcome of this unusually interesting
case
The property involved belonged to
six heirs of A. p. Webb. The coal COM
pany desiring to acquire the title there
to make contract with the guardian OF
these heirs, under which she agreed to
sell the coal to the coal company at
the price of SO per acre and to take
the necessary legal proceedings to
nave the property sold under judg-
inent of the court.
The sale took place and the coal
company became the purchaser at the
price agreed upqn. Upon appeal of
the Kentucky court of appeals 1t was
decided that the Judgment was enron
eous and It was reversed. The court
held, however. that as 1t did not APP
pear that the coal company was not a
good faith purchaser. it's title would
be protected,
In the case just decided by the Unit
ed States Circuit Court OF Appeals II
was charged by the Webb heirs, and
according to the finding Of the court
sustained by proof. that the coal COM
pany was not a bona fide purchaser
because through its own council and
agents it conducted the original case
in which sale of the property was
sought and was therefore the moving
force and effective cause which, pro-
duced the erroneous Judgment.
Under the order Of the court these
infant children are restored to the
possession of the coal which for sew
eral years has been operated by a
large mining company.
