State recovers payoff on Gibson county land sale
Indiana sells 16 acres in Gibson county to Benjamin B. Milter of Newton county for 34 500. The sale continues a state program reclaiming land after overvalued mortgages tied to Finn Whenley and John Corkrum's sister, with no interest paid and a faulty appraisal. Auditor David Sherrick investigated the mortgage, noting overvaluation and a foregone installment plan. A prior 180 acre sale remains, leaving 180 acres unsold with uncertain future disposition. Gen Ward heads to Washington with Adjutant Gen Wardlett to settle encampment payrolls and quartermaster funds awaiting state entitlements.
