Circuit Judge Fowler of Fond du Lac ordered judgment for the defendant in Ecke et al v George Werner, a land dispute in Taylor County. Werner recalls a November 1910 sale to Richard and Lena Ecke who traded their Fond du Lac home for 825 dollars and moved to the Taylor County site, later selling the land to a third party after unsatisfaction noted by the wife and son.
