Tribunal Denies Land Case Writ
The supreme court refused the prohibition sought by Mineral County to stop the circuit court from proceeding in J. R. Hayden's action for compensation in land condemnation. The county court had claimed Hayden obtained title after paying Caleb J. White $1,300 for land used by the county. Other actions: Wayne County denied appeals in cases involving Jane Chambers and Georgian Rodger. Mercer County cases involving Price Construction and Standard Accident against Gulf Oil. Roane County denied Estelle Perkins appeal to enjoin actions by A. S. Heck to eject her from land given by her father. Two Japanese whalers caught 907 whales last year and the whale oil.
