cITYy AND DISTRICT. MR. LAMBERDS CLAIM. A Romantic Story Involved ina Law- suit Over St. Paul Property. ‘The suit brought by Mr. Tallmadge A. Lambert, of this city, to recover possession of a large tract of valuable ground in the suburbs of St. Paul, has excited deep interest in that city, Mr. Lambert bas returned from St. Paul, where he has been in attendance at the trial of the case, which has Deen in progress several days. The testimony has all been taken, and the case will be argued to-day. ‘The story of Mr. Lambert's claim, as it came out at the trial, has much romantic interest. Nearly forty years ago his father bought @ quarter section in the vicinity of Lake Rheelen, Ramsey County. This land, then of little value, has now become a part of St. Paul. Upon the death of the Elder Lambert it 1s claimed that nis relatives at St. Paul suppressed the fact. that he left a widow and infant son in this city. ‘The estate was settled up without reference to the claims of Mrs Lambert and the child. Mrs. Lam- bert died, but the son survives, and 1s now a well- known lawyer of this city. He had no knowleage of the toheritance due him until about a year ago. Meanwhile the rapid ih of the city of St. Paul had made the land valuable. His attention Was first called to his possible claim by a letter from St. Paul, from a person who wanted to secure S qult-ciaim deed. MiP Lambert: having thus besa apprised of his claim, went to St, Paul and made a search of the records that con- Vinced him that he 1s the rightful owner Of a tract of land which now has a value of $00,000 of more. He instituted the suit which is now on tial The case 1s known as that of ‘Talmadge A. Lambert against Washington M. ‘Stees, Anna K. Stes and Jas. Casey. The land in- ‘Yolved is now platted and laid off in blocks com- =. What 3 known as Stees’ addition to St. ‘The sult is brought, to recover possession ot the land from the defendants and also to recover $7,000 damages for illegal revention. ‘HE STORY OF THE CLAIM. At the cpening of the case the story of the claim ‘Was told substantially as follows: David Lam- bert was a lawyer, practicing early in his life in this city, where ‘he occupied several positions ‘Under the Government up to the year 1842. He also spent some time in Arkansas, and was the Irlend of a number of the statesmen of that time, including Henry Clay. Having decided to seek & fortune In the West, in 1842 David Lambert moved to Madison, Wis. He had been married prior to this, He remained at Madison for some time, and, Mually ring of the privations and troubles of & frontier life, returned to this city, bringing his wite and child with him. Soon afterward he went to Galveston, Tex., leaving his wife and child in this city. Aiter a brief stay in Texas he again Went to Madison. His brother, Henry Lambert, Joined him at Madison about this time. It was ai This period, as was stated in the opening of the ease the otiier day, that the mother of David Lam- Dert seems to hav’ begut to exhibit a certain feei- ing of resentment toward his young Wife, and to have communicated the same resentment to Henry Lambert. In 1848 David Lambert went to Minne- Sota and located in St. Paul, where be devoted himself to the law practice ahd also engaged in the real estate business, Which he continued up to the ume of his death. About 1549 he had his brother Henry join him at St. Paul, and advanced his interesis, procuring for him a secretaryship in ‘the rst territorial legislature, and he also had nis mother go there to live with him. His wife never came to Minnesota but rewnained with her child in ‘this city until the time of her death. ‘THE DEATH OF THE FATHER. About the early part of November, 1849, David ‘Lambert went from St. Paul to Madison for the purpose of taking his brother's wife and family from Madison to St. Paul. While on the home- ‘Ward trip he fell from the steamboat into the Mississippi and was drowned, bis body never belng Tecovered. On October 17, previous to his deata, | he had entered at the Government Land ofice, Then located at Stillwater, a record of the pur- chase of the 160 acres ‘of land involved in the present controversy. ‘The assignment of thé land Warrant was made by the original grantee, in Philadelphia, in February, in 184%, to David Lam- Dert, and "this was etered on the records at the Stillwater office by the latter, with & memorandum to the effect that the patent Should be sent to him at St. Paul. November 3 1849, Gov. Ramsey appointed Henry Lambert Judge of the Probate Court of Ramsey County, ‘and he was shortly afterward elected to the office, which be held for several years. On November 8, 1840, within eight days of David Lambert's death, iu the court presided over by his brother, Henry Lambert, his mother appeared and certified In re- gard to the lands in question as to a suggested trust, and at the same time, it ts claimed, she SUPPRESSED THE FACT that David Lambert had lett surviving him his | wife and a son, T. A. Lambert, the plaintiff in the present action. About 1850 the patents for the property were returned to the Stillwater land Office from this city in the name of David Lam- bert. In the interim the estate had been closed Dy The "brother Henry, who said that there was nothing to distribute, and did distribute noubin ‘The administratrix, his mother, was disc but when the patenis were received Henry recalled dis mother and invested her with the power to convey the land to one Andrew Bell Patterson. ‘The first points touching the case, which are to be | found im the records of Ramsey County, show a nsfer of the land from Patterson to Henry Lam- bert. ‘The title to this property, it 1s said, was in Androw Belt Patterson only long enoagh to enabie it to be transferred to Henry Lam! From | Henry Lambert, the uncle of the present plainuff, the ¥ bas come down by purchase and other means until It has reached the hands of the | defendants. Mr. Tailimadge A. Lambert was never im Minnesota until 1887. In working up bis tite to his father’s property he discovered among the Kamsey County records an affidavit made by Henry Lambert to the effect that David Lambert died without Issue, Closed for the Senson. ‘THE RECORD OF THE NIGAT LODGING-HOUSE—A MEET ING OF THE DIRECTORS. A meeting of the board of directors of the Wash- ington Night Lodging-House Association was held Yesterday at the office of Fitch, Fox & Brown, A. S. Soiowons, president, tm the chair, and Charles J.
