Trial in Quiet Title Suit in Judge Harvey's Court
Mrs Lena Mueller sues George Renkes to quiet title to a house and lot on Must Broadway. The case recounts years of engagement between Renkes and Mrs Mosherosh, a mortgage of 2450 dollars, his marriage to another woman, and subsequent mortgage satisfaction claimed to be without consideration. Renkes contends the transfer from Mosherosh to Mueller’s seller lacked value and that the mortgage remains unresolved. The court reserved ruling as attorneys prepare further arguments.
