FRANK WHERE ALL ARE PLEASED. O'GARA, Pres. BERNARD O'GARA, Sec-Treas, -1 SAYS D. W. BAILEY ATTORNEY DECLARES ' PICARD WAS TENDERED INSTRUMENT. Accused Lawyer Says Deed Was Taken to Cover Loan of $21.73 Now in Rands of a Local Abstract Company. Pendleton, Ore., Sept. 21. Editor East Oregonlan: Referring to the article in your pa per of yesterday, permit me to say that on Monday, last, at Mr. Picard's request, I prepared, and my wife and I executed to him. a quit-claim deed, covering the land referred to ana tendered it to him upon the payment of the amount I let Tilin have at the time I took the, deed from his. viz: , $21.75 and interest on the same from Dec, 190S. I afterward deposited the deed with the Pendleton Abstract Co., and it has since remained there, subject to his order upon payment of the amount aforesaid. The facts under which I received the deed from Picard were that in De cember, 1908. Picard, in company with one of the Bergevln Brothers and another man I do not now re member, came to my office and want ed me to begin some proceeding to avoid a lease he had executed to some man near Adams, who was at that time farming the lana; he wanted to deed the place to me for that pur7 pose and represented to me that the patent had been 1-sueu After he had executed the deed to me, he requested me to make him a loan of $20.00, and this I did. Mr. Picard never came back to the office, and. upon inquiry. ! I found that patent had never issued to the land, and the deed he had giv en me was absolutely worthless, for it 's common knowledge that reserva tion land, held under allotment, can not be conveyed by the allottee until after the patent is issued; the statute makes such a deed void and I have always realized that the deed I had was not worth the paper it was writ ten upon. Mr. Picard has never of fered to pay me the $20.00 loaned him nor the expense of recording his deed. On Monday, last, he met me on the street as I was going to court and said: "You have a f".eed to this pro perty and I want to get it fixed up." and I replied that "upon my return to the office at one o'clock I would prepare a deed for nlm," and he agreed to be there at that time and take the deed and pay me the money due me, but he didn't come until 3 p. m., when he wanted to take the deed away without paying me the money. This I refused to permit him to do. I then left the deed with the Pendleton Abstract company, and it was by Mr. Earnhart, again .tendered to Mr. Picard upon payment of the amount due me and it has since re mained there subject to his order upon payment of the amount he owes on it. DOUGLAS W. BAILEY. Mr Editor: I took the deed execut ed by Mr. Bailey and his wife and ten dered it to Picard and offered to sur render it to him upon payment of the sum of $21.75. Picard wanted to and tried to take the deed without pay ing the amount; he tftd not say he didn't owe it. but that he wouldn't pay it. The deed remains at the Ab stract Co.'s office subject to his order upon payment of $21.75 and Interest from December 1908 Respectfully. W. F. EARNHART. Free lecture.
