Supreme Court Upholds Bean in Bowman v Wade
The Oregon Supreme Court affirms the circuit court ruling in Bowman v Wade, with Justice King dissenting. The 1908 case involved a $1000 loan and alleged security via a $320 acre mortgage, disputed as the mortgage had no value due to Wade’s son’s incapacity. Justice Eakin writes the majority, holding Sec 797 does not apply. King urges strict construction of attachments. Also notes a related decision: Simpson v Harrah from Umatilla County.
