county circuit court. George Kern of Woodland, Cal., becomes the possessor of six hundred acres of choice farm lands In northern Indiana, valued at $100,000. Jacob Kern married Mrs. Catherine Harwell, both being residents of Hebron, Porter county. To obtain the widow's consent. Kern offered to give her his property, thus shutting off a son and two daughters. Five days before the wedding Kern deeded the land to his son George, in California. After the wedding of Kern and Mrs. Harwell, the latter demanded a deed of the big farm. Kern found

excuses to delay the redemption of his

promise. His wife consulted an attor

ney. who discovered the record of the

conveyance of the property. Suit for divorce and possession "of the property

resulted in a victory for Mrs. Kern. A rehearing was denied. Her death In

Chicago closes the case and leaves the son in undisputed possession of the

land.
