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.
