Misrepresentation Claim in Laurel Oil Stock Case
Indiana woman Adda P. Elkin denies authorizing T. L. Eyre to sell her 111532 Laurel Oil and Gas Co. shares at $3.06 and accuses Samuel Clark of misrepresenting the company’s earnings. She says Eyre acted without authority after revoking his mandate and notes Eyre’s close ties as her late husband’s executor and adviser. Clark claims misrepresentation aimed at undervaluing her stock. Elkin’s answer names Eyre as key conduit and cites Oklahoma well profits and dividends.
