ITS EVIDENCE
LOUDERMJLK SOW PRODUCING
HIS EYIDEXCE.
Litigation hinges on whether or not
the Stat owns the land
All evidence to be presented by
the 8tate In the case of Townley vo.
Laudermilk. was given in this morn
ing and Attorney Hodgln Immediate
ly introduced evidence for the defend
ant ,
The State has been trying, to es
tabllsh the fact that the land in the
Union district which the men 'ar
carrying legal warfare over, was oi l
ginally swamp land and as Buch it
would belong to the State and as th
land was drained and become fit for
cultivation, the5 State had a perfect
right to give title to the land which
It did to Townley.
The defense advances the argu
ment that the land was not swamp
land and consequently the State had
no right to give a deed for it The
entire litigation hinges on whether
or. not the land is swamp land. v. "
It ls( impossible to state Just when
the defense will rest its case but to
