CLOSELY CONTESTED

Will Be the Case of Herisler vs. The Fountain Park Co. . The case of Christian L. Hensler vs. the Fountain Park Company of Remington, promises to be a rather hotly contested case. Geo. Williams appears for plaintiff, who purchased the Fountain Park grounds'* of the trustee of the Parker bank estate, and who is nominally suing for SSO rent for,the hotel on the grounds, although there is more back of the suit, it is said, than appears on the surface. The defendants have a lease on the grounds from Parker that does not expire for some

ten years yet, but Hensler claims that in buying the ground title to the improvements followed/ and’the suit is really to determine this question,. the Park com pany claiming, as we understand, that his title is only to the ground proper, and that the improvements, worth several thousand dollars, under their agreement with Parker, belong to the company and the individuals who have built cottages there.. Geo. A. Williams of Rensselaer is plaintiff’s attorney, and-Frasier & Isham of Fowler, Jasper Gfiy oi Remington and Frank Foltz of Rensselaer are attorneys for the defense. The case is set for trial the lourth Wednesday of the presen* term of court, and is likely to be the most interesting case of the term. r
