Faunce today lost her suit against the heirs of Joseph H. Chivell to require them to convey to her premises 208, 210 and 216 L street southwest, under a parole agree- ment with Chivell to give Mrs. Faunce the houses if she remained in his employ ‘until his death. Chivell failed to deed the property or to make | a will. The lower court held with the heirs and Mrs. Faunce appealed. In delivering the opinion offi#he Court of Appeals, Justice Van Orsdel holds that recovery is precluded by the statute of frauds since the mer- chant did not place Mrs. Faunce in possession of the property and her employment was not materially changed after the alleged. agreement made only 18 months before his death. Chief Justice Martin concurs jn the opinion of Justice Van Orsdel, but Judge Bland of the United States Court of Customs Appeals, who sat in the place of Justice Robb, filed a lengthy dissenting opinion. . According to the record, Chivell was an uneducated man, incapable of keeping books, and intrusted the details of his commission business at the Eleventh street wharves to Mrs. Faunce, who had been in his em-|Thompson, umm.xm and Thomp ploy for many vears preceding her |was arrested. e charged with narriage.
