Partnership Dissolution Case in Circuit Court Seeks Accounting

Captain Samuel V Ham of the U S Army filed in circuit court here a dissolution and accounting suit against Eli Marvin capitalist and general manager of Central Energy Telephone. Ham alleges a partnership to secure options on mineral lands in Greene County Indiana. Marvin procured options on 2000 acres and sold one third to W Stevenson Sam Rough David M Parry and Cortland Van Camp for 23000. He claims a one fourth interest was later allotted to Frank Van Camp for 10001. Ham says the partnership aimed to develop the lands for iron ore and minerals and that Marvin ignored the agreement by holding the options in his own name. The case seeks judgment for 100.00.
