Guthrie Okla.. March 31.—The fail-
ure of a jury to return the right seal-
ed verdict to the court caused the r<-
vtrsal by ihe criminal court of ap- ;
putls of the case in which John Hetitte j
was convicted In Pittsburg county of j
si lling liquor ami sentence d to :!0 da; s J
in jail and $50 tine and the release of
the defendant. The opinion was hand- ,
td down by Chief Justice Furman in j
which he orders the prisoner discharg- |
ed.
in the lower court the jury returned |
an oral verdict of guilty and was dis- j
charged. About ten days later it was >
discovered that the sealed verdict that |
was handed to the court by the fore-
man of the jury found the defendant
not guilty. The jury was called to-
gether and admitted that it had made
a mistake and returned the wrong
staled verdict.
Justice Furman holds that under
such circumstances the sealfd verdict
controls and that the defendant should
he discharged.

To J. J. Jones: -
Referring to the attached Abstract of Title to the following described
lands, located in Creek County, Oklahoma, to-wit:
The southeast quarter of section twenty-seven. Township Eighteen north
and Mange Elev«n East 1 beg to report: *
1. From the abstract it appears that this land was patented hy the Creek
Nation und the United Stats Government to Eliza Tiger, a Creek Citizen.
2. While it does not appear from the abstract thut Eliza Tiger is dead.
,et 1 find from a decree of the County Court of Creek County, State of
Oklahoma, referred to on page 7 of the abstract that Elizu Tiger died.
Aprll-T 1907, in Cretk County, Oklahoma, Intestate and without issue; that
she left as her sole surviving heirs at law, her mother, Janelta Tiger, her
sisters, Lacy James, Nellie Helton and Alice Bradford, adults; and Siller
Tiger and Moses Bailey, sister and brother, respectively, ndnor heirs.
8. While it does not appear from the abstract, I tiud from an exami-
nation of the Creek Indian Rolls that all of the above named heirs are full
blood citizens except Alice Bradford, who appears from the rolls to be of hall
blood*
4. I find from the abstract that J annetta Tiger, Nellie Helton, and Lucy
James conveyed,the land in question, on September 17, 190S, to lluber C.
Hughes, which conveyance was approved by the County Court of Creek
County, September 25, 190H.
6. I find that Alice Bradford, being an heir of less than foil blood, on
September 24,1908, conveyed her interest 1 - the land In question to Huber
C. Hughes, in regular form.
C. I find that on February 9, 1909, Willie Tiger, the duly appointed
guardian of Moses Bailey and Siller Tiger, minors, conveyed the Interest of
said minors in said land in regular form to Huber C. Hughes, which convey-
ancc was by a decree of the County Court of Creek County duly authorized
on the 9th day of February 1909.
7. J find that on October 8, 1907, Jannetta Tiger and Willie Tiger
leased the land In question to Frank l~ Mars and Frank Clark, but from tin-
abstract I find that any Interest which migHt have been conveyed by this
lease has since been quit claimed in regular form to Joseph J. Jones.
R. I And that Jannetta Tiger and Lucy James and Willie Tiger as
guardian leased said land on July 559, I90H to Hotter C. Hughes and W. /..
tlore. but that any Interest said lease conveyed to W. /. (lore has been
quitclaimed In due form by W. Z. Wore to Joseph J. Jones.
9. 1 find that on March «, 1909, Huber Hughes, conveyed by war-
ranty deed to Joseph J. Jones all interest in suld land, and that said deed
conveyed all interest which said lluber C. Hughes bad In said land by
lease, deed or otherwise.
10. I conclude, therefore, that the said Joseph J. Joues is the owner in
fee simple to the lands described in the caption of said abstract free from
all otber claims appearing of record.
