Barnhart Long complainant, Fitch Philo and others defendants
On 8 Dec 1849 Long (of Wayne Co.) filed a bill from 21 Jan 1846 when he
contracted to sell to John J. Darling land in Waynesfield Twp, Town of
Monclovia, house and lot # 37. Darling paid $75 down and agreed to pay
$25 with interest on 29 Jan 1847 and 29 Jan 1848 and 29 Jan 1849
(total of $150) and was to have possession on 1 Apr 1846, at which time
he moved his family in. On 24 Feb 1847 Darling assigned all his
interest to Fitch Philo. A deed was made out to Philo. On 1 Jan 1848
said Darling departed this life and left a widow named Concurrence
Darling and Gilbert Darling and Oliver Darling and Wm. Darling and
Cynthia Darling. Fitch Philo refuses to make his payment. He is also to
pay taxes for 1847, 1848, 1849 amounting to 65˘. Long requests that
Philo and Concurrence and children be subpoenaed so that payment can be
made or property sold.
In Dec 1849 The Sherrif was commanded to summon Concurrence and
children to appear in court to answer a petition. Fitch Philo was also
summoned.
Attorney S.E. (J.E.?) Lee(?) was appointed guardian of the 4 children,
“infants”.
It was agreed that Fitch Philo must pay the balance or the land would
be sold.
