Court cases on Dodds Curtiss affair hinge on bill of sale
Justice O'Brien heard a dispute over a $1,400 loan and an unrecorded stock mortgage. Gilbert's bill of sale and its validity were examined as several animals were claimed by Curtiss. The ruling favored Curtiss on possession, with potential further cases anticipated. Additional matters before Justices Haverly concerned a board bill and a six-dollar claim, both decided in favor of plaintiffs. Local livestock interests show strong dairy demand with Holstein shipments and notable pedigrees to Iowa Agricultural College.
