Eberly Favored In
Dispute Over Lease

In an opinion signed Monday by
Associate Judge George Henderson in
the circuit court here, it was de-
clared that Orville Eberle was en-
titled to permanent injunction
against Roy Fletcher concerning the
drilling for gas on property known
as Hamilton Hall, and owned by H.
c. and Mary Kiser in Mt. Lake Park.
The case in equity involved lib
acres of land and was the first suit
in the county involving natural gas
land since gas was discovered here
about two years ago.
Eberly, the plaintiff, claimed that
a certain lib acre tract of land was
included in a lease from II. c. and
Mary NJ. Kiser, and the latter and
Roy Fletcher maintained that the
Eberly lease was not intended to in
clude the tract and did not include
the tract in question and that the
Kisers had right to make lease
to Fletcher.
In September, 1850, Eberly secured
a lease of four parcels of land con-
tanning about four acres from the
Kisers. On June 7, 1851, the Kisers
leased the 1.13 acre tract to Fletcher.
As soon as Fletcher erected a rig and
began drilling for gas, Eberly filed
suit in the Circuit court, asking for
an injunction to prevent any further
drilling.
The Judge in his opinion which was
filed Tuesday in the court, declared
it was only by inclusion of lib acres
that the amount leased to Eberly
would total the acreage stated,
The entire dispute was over what
was meant by words THAT tract
known as Hamilton Hall property"
which were contained in the lease OBJ
tanned by Eberly. After referring to
several Inconsistencies in the testi-
mony of the defendants and to other
facts brought out at the trial, Judge
Henderson concluded that the acreage
tract was included within the Eberly
lease and that Eberly was entitled to
a permanent injunction against Flet-
cher. Judge Henderson declared that
Fletcher must lose what he spent in
moving and erecting his rig and
pointed out that it would have been
the course of reasonably prudent
man to have talked to Ebcrly about
the acreage and to await court de-
cision before he went to any expense.
