William A. Hill and Willlam A. Hllll Co., in an answer filed in the Su- preme Court of th eDistrict of Co- lumbia, specifically deny all charges of | fraud and misrepresentation mlde; against them by Mrs. Louise T. Cham- bers in the suit filed by her to set aside an exchange and recover the value of a house at 2009 Massachusetts avenue, which was purchased and is now occu: pled by Speaker Nicholas Longworth. ‘Through Attorneys Wilton J. Lam-! bert and R. H. Yeatman, Mr. Hill claims that he had no negotiations with Mrs. Chambers, but that in 1925 he was_approached by her agent, William G. Lipscomb, a real estate agent, and requested to trade his property for the Massachusetts avenue house, then owned by plaintiff. This offer he ac- cepted, and later another real estate agent, J. P. Story, brought to him Speaker Longworth as a purchaser. ‘The transaction is characterized as having been in every way regular and carried through with the utmost good faith, in view of which the court is asked to dismiss the bill. # Hare drives have resulted in the kill- ing of many of the animals in Scotland this Winter, and a plan to use the meat for charity has been proposed.
