BY JACK ALLEN, Staft Correspondent of The Star. ROCKVILLE, Md., January 15.— The Home Owners’ Loan Corp. was accused of violating an agreement in the foreclosure of a mortgage as two elderly women, survivors of & promi- nent Chevy Chase, Md., family, opened a legal battle vesterday to regain possession of their home. Miss Katherine Gideon Colt made the charge while testifying before Thomas M. Anderson, examiner in chancery, to a bill of exceptions through which she and her sister, Miss Alice Ely Colt, hope to have | the Circuit Court deny ratification of the sale of the residence at 7 West | Kirke street. Both women are well known in ‘Washington, where they were regular contributors to charities until the recent collapse of investments forced them to accept aid themselves, and where they have long been active members of St. John's Episcopal Church. Miss Katherine Colt is on the Board of Governors of the Wash= | ington Orphan’s Asylum. ! A transcript of testimony offered | yesterday is to be presented to the | ecourt when the bill of exceptions comes before that tribunal for con- sideration. The H. O. L. C. intro- duced no witnesses at the hearing but will submit its testimony to the ehancery examiner at a later date. The sisters, daughters of the late William D. Colt, a distant relative | of the Hartford, Conn, arms manu- | facturers, still occupy the home, the legal proceedings having deterred the H. O. L. C. from obtaining possession. Three principal objections have been raised by the sistery’ attorneys to the procedure in which the 10- voom home of the Colt sisters, their family's residence since 1907, was sold last October 5 after they allegedly defaulted on a $9,551.86 loan from the Federal agency. It is their contention the H. O. L. C. failed to adhere to an agree- ment to allow the loan to run for three yvears without demanding pay- ment on principal or interest and another agreement that there would be no default until 90 days after that period. In addition, they say. the corpora- tion did not give the Colt sisters proper notice of the auction sale at which an H. O. L. C. assignee bought in the property for the amount of the loan.
