Jasper County Democrat, Volume 13, Number 93, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 8 March 1911 — THE CIRCUIT COURT.. [ARTICLE]

THE CIRCUIT COURT..

The continued illness of juror C. F. Tillett of Gillam tp,, who went home with an attack of the grip Friday, caused further delay in the Powell vs. Greenlee case, which was partially heard Thursday, and the case was continued Monday until this Friday, when it is likely to be continued for the term unless juror Tillett—who is reported to be seriously sick, and juror Faris, also of Gillam, whose family is sick and was unable to return Monday—is able to be here, which is unlikely. The big Condon will case from Newton county was taken up yesterday and will likely last two or three days at least. A large number of witnesses have been summoned in this case from Goodland and vicinity, where Mrs. Condon, whose will is sought to be broken, resided, and there is a strong array of legal talent employed. This is the last week of the term and it i§ scarcely likely that any other cases of importance can be heard. Following is a report of other proceedings in court since our last issue: , Petition of Robert F. Irwin for leave to execute certain deeds: sale of Ins interest in certain rear estate in Rensselaer to Francis A. Turfler and Charles Porter. Deed presented and approved. William P. Baker vs. Frank Osborne, commissioner in charge of construction of Prouty ditch; affidavit for continuance by defendant overruled and evidence heard. Taken under advisement by court.
