had heard of the finding of bodies Of

MRS. CLEYS NOT
FORCED TO SIGN
-
Judge Holds That Amelia
Cleys Conveyed Her
Property Willingly.
III
NO FRAUD Is SHOWN

Philip Cleys did not use undue influ-
ence to secure the signing of war
ranty deed by his mother, Mrs. Amelia
Cleys, conveying the home at Powers
Lake to himself, according to the de-
cision of Judge Belden in circuit court
late Friday afternoon in the case of
Cleys VS.. Cleys, which was rendered
for the defendant,
Philip Cleys was charged in civil
suit brought by other heirs with hav-
ing influenced his mother to sign the
document in his favor. Eight attor-
neys represented the litigants in the
case, causing one of the number to
remark loosely that he hoped there
was enough money in the estate to
meet the fees of all. The property is
said to be valued at $4,000
Taylor Quotes Winslow Case.
Attorney George w. Taylor, who rep
resented Philip Cleys, pointed out that
where undue influence is charged in a
mater of deed transference or a will,
that the law Is that the influence must
be such and so strong as to overcome
the will of the person executing the
conveyance or making the will, so that
the act is in effect the will of the
person welding the influence.
Taylor illustrated with the case in
which he quoted the decision of Chief
Justice Winslow who held in a similar
case that four elements governed:
susceptibility to influence must be
shown on the part of the person sign
ing; 2-Opportunity to influence must
be- shown on the part of the defendant;
3-Disposition to influence must be
shown; and 1.-The result must be
clearly shown to be the effect Of the
influence.
. Attorney Vaudreuil maintained in his
argument before the court that the
Cleys case covered all the points laid
down by the Winslow decision, but
Attorney Taylor insisted in his argu-
ment that under the testimony as pre-
scented in court no one could conscien-
ciously say that Mrs. Cleys had dis
posed of her property in any other
manner than that which she herself
really and honestly intefAied.
Judge Belden held that. Mrs. Cleys
had comprehended the nature of the
instrument which she was signing and
that there was nothing to support the
charge of fraud, and judgment was ac-
cordingly ordered for the defendant,
Phillip Cleys.
