Sister Sells Mine Interest in Family Dispute
Joseph Devlin sues his sister Mary E Reilly to recover judgment and funds tied to the Minnie Healey mine at Meaderville. He claims the March 1892 deed to secure a loan was a mortgage, not a gift, and that Reilly sold a five sixteenths share to F. Augustus Heinze for 37500 with rents and royalties paid. He seeks 30625 plus interest and royalties, while Heinze is held to have purchased without knowledge of his rights.
