OWNER WAS NOT DEAD Enorts to Settle Ownership of Property Results In Discovery of 1 Woman Who Had Been Unheard from for Twenty-Seven YearsOshkosh Attorney Plays Part In the Search. Efforts made to determine the ownership of twenty acres of land in the town of Alto, Fond du Lac county, have resuited in the unraveling.

of A pecullar tangle. Attorney Gerrit T. Thorn of this elty started the unraveling process when he hunted up James Fort of Marinette as the missing heir of Jane Goodell, unheard from for twenty-seven years. After James Fort came to light, under an adopted name, Fond du Lac attorneys: began a still further Investigation with the result that Jane Goodell, thought dead. was found at Iron Mountain, her Identity thoroughly established and all matters cleared up in relation to the farm.

The woman owned an Interest in the land in question with Louts Redeker. Mr. Redeker sought to purchase her Interest but was unable to find out whether she lived or whether she had heirs. Mr. Thorn finally found James Fort of Marinette to be a baby left by Mrs.

Goodell when she disappeared many years ago, and to all appearances he was the owner of the land and the sole heir to Mrs. Goodell. Attorney D. D. Sutherland, who appeared for Mr.

Redeker, was not completely satisfled that he was the only heir, and accordingly a partition suit was started in order to determine the rightful owners of the property. Then a search for unknown heirs and Mrs. Goodell began, with the result that Mrs. Goodell was located at Iron Mountain. She came to Marinette and stayed for a time with her son and when the deed was executed, she went back to Iron Mountain.

Another development came in the unusual case when Mr. Thorn discovered that Mra. Goodell was the owner of only a third Interest in the property and that Mr. Redeker owned two-thirds. The title settled and the deed conveying the property to Redeker drawn, the partition suit was.

dismissed. MASONIC FUNERAL Notice to Master Masona: All Brethren are requested to meet at lodge room at 1:30 p. m. Friday, Jan. 10, to attend the funeral of our late Bro.
