[.P. JACKSON ACTS
AS TRUSTEE IN oil
ACRAGE PURCHASE
=
Takes Over 1880 Acres in
North Field; Amount
Paid Is Large.

j Leases on 1880 acres lying about 8
| mile and half south of the Troy.
Sweetgrass well in the Kevin-S -Sunburst
field were sold Thursday by Frank
Kitchen Of Sunburst and W. w. Thorn
| Of Shelby to L. P. Jackson as trustee.
The land embraced in the leases is
in half and quarter sections, the de-
scription being the west half of
section 6, the northwest quarter of
section i. the northwest quarter of
section 2, the north half of section 8,
all of township 33, range l west, and
the south half of section "a, township
"a, range l west.
Consideration Not Announced
Mr.. Jackson did not announce for
whom he was acting In the deal or the
amount of the consideration involved
although he said that the amount paid
was large"
Mr.. Jackson's intimacy with both
the Sunburst Oil and Gas officials
and the Gordon Campbell Kevin syndi-
cate caused some speculation as to his
client in the purchase.
The sale is one of the first Of any
size to be made and the rumof of a
consideration Of some consequence
caused many to regard it as q develop
ment of the settlement of the Gordon
Campbell-L. G. Stevenson litigation.
The principal reaction to the settle
ment OF the litigation seemed Thursday
to be found In the resumption of ne
gotlations on several tracts of leases,
The settlement placing the west line
OF range 2 west as the division line,
giving Campbell all Of the contested
area to the west and Stevenson all Of
the disputed area to the east, was re-
garded as favorable to dealings due to
the fact that it largely consolidated
these holdings. Each gains some 90
600 or 25,OOO acres in the arrange
ment.
Values Stabilized
The chief result of the settlement on
lease values seemed to be in stabilizine.
There was trend upward In all acre
age offerings. according to oil men. and
less tendency to gamble. The rise was
most IN areas near disputed territory
where there was question of disposition

Especial CorresnondencaA

Geneseo, July 12.-This commun-
ity was shocked yesterday morning,
by the receipt OF the news Of fhs
death in Chicago of Superintendent
of Schools J. M. Edman. He has
been attending the University ~
Chicago and would have received
the degree Of Bachelor Of Arts At
the conclusion of his summers,
work. He was in this city over the,
Fourth Of July holiday period.
Information of the final illness IA
meagre due to the fact that his III.
ness was Of sudden nature and
death followed SO soon thereafter.
1t seems that he was stricken while'
attending classes at the university
Monday afternoon. His condition
became alarming and word to this
effect reached Geneseo that evening
Mrs. Edman later in the night re-
ceived message summoning her,
to Chicago Immediately. She left,
Geneseo on an early morning train
and word Of his death was tele-.
phoned to DR.. J. E. West about II
a. m. This long distance call came
from Mr.. Edman's roommate. Dur,
ing the afternoon DR.. West, who is
a member of the board Of education
of the elementary schools and its
secretary, was in telephone COM
murication with Mrs. Edman. She
stated that she was expecting the
arrival Of a brother of Mr.. Edman
and with him would make arrange
ments for the funeral. The body
will likely be taken to Pennsyl-
vania for burial.
Mr.. Edman had Just completed
his third year as superintendent Of
the elementary schools of Geneseo..
He was a man of rare ability and
his work here was of exceptionally
high character. A man who worked
quietly but earnestly, Mr.. Edman
obtained excellent results. He was
popular not only with the members
of the teaching corps but also with
the children Of the schools with
whom he took a keen personal in
terest. Coming as it has with a
suddenness which is overwhelming.
this community by its general ex-
pressio nof good will and esteem
emphasizes the value which he has
been in the school life of Geneseo.
Mr.. Edman was a member of the
Masonic fraternity and also OF the
Geneseo Kiwanis club.
