Mattingly Wins Suit Over City Half Lot Dispute
In a Circuit Court decision Judge Houghton ruled in favor of William H. Mattingly, denying the city’s claim to a half lot at City Hall. The city had pursued the lease in Squire Kellam’s court for weeks, but the verdict favored Mattingly and may force the council to buy the lease. The case follows earlier local court proceedings and potential appeals. Carrie Orr, mother in another case, remains sick with typhoid fever as the bastardy verdict is delivered.
