Court adjourned Thursday after- noon and Judge Stanton and the court reporter, Lee LaBaw, went to their homes in Bemidji. The last case which came before the court for consideration follow- ing the decision in the Deer River damage suit was that wherein Mrs. Arthur Kremer of Grand Rapids is asking that the title toa resi- dence in Grand Rapids now owned by Peter Billodeau be, made clear ts her. It seems that a number of years ago Mrs. Kremer owned a house, so she claims, that given or deeded to her by her hus- band. Later the Kremer affairs be- came complicated but Mrs. Kremer. held this house now owned by Mr. Billodeau. She sold it to him and accepted as a part of the payment, a mortgage. This mortgage is now ‘im question as to whom it should belong. The court. has the matter under consideration. ; The tax case wherein A. D. In- gersoll of Deer River is objecting to the collection of a tax levied against that village for road and bridge bonds issued by the town- ship also remains undecided. Judge Stanton will likely render these de cisions in a short time. | Mrs. Margaret Clark, who asked for $10,000 damages, from the vil- was Gross Earnings Increase.
