—Although it is considered a delicate, and sometimes dangerous thing for Courts to meddle with deeds, so far as to declare them utterly void, it nevertheless occasionally happens that a Judge is called upon to decide and declare whether instruments of this kind shall stand and operate to defeat the claims of honest creditors.
—The second case wherein the validity of a deed has been called in question in our Common Pleas Court during the past few weeks was decided by Judge O'Neall last Monday.
—The first was the Hunt case, in which Judge Doan sat, and the one now under consideration was the case of Wm F. Dill against Job and John Lackey. The trial of this case came off at the close of the last term of Court, but Judge O'Neall reserved his decision until the time named above.
—Wm. F. Dill, the plaintiff, asked to have certain deeds set aside which were made to Job and John Lackey by Enos Lackey in his lifetime, and which the plaintiff alleged were false and fraudulent.
—The interest which Mr. Dill had in this matter grew out of a promissory note which Enos Lackey endorsed and transferred to him for a valuable consideration. The note was for $3,000 and was jointly made by John S. and James A. Roseberry.
—At the October term of Court, 1883, Wm. F. Dill recovered a judgment against the makers and endorser of the note for the sum of $1545 and the costs of the suit. no part of the judgment has ever been paid, and one of the Roseberrys has since died insolvent while the other is a non-resident of this county and also insolvent.
—The pleadings allege that Enos Lackey conveyed, after the suit on the note was commenced, certain tracts of land to Job and John Lackey that should now be made subject to the payment of this claim, on the ground that the conveyances were fraudulent.
—Judge O'Neall in a lengthy review of the whole case, in which he cites numerous authorities to back up his decision, declared the deeds null and void and set the same aside.
—Touching the charge of fraud he had this to say:
"But is has been argued that we can not set these conveyances aside upon the ground of fraud without impugning the Christian character of Enos Lackey, and reflecting upon his sons, John and Job Not so. Enos Lackey was, I believe, a Christian gentleman. I never heard his integrity questioned, we are not now questioning it, nor that of his sons. The act may be adjudged covinous, although the parties deny all intention of committing a fraud. It is not necessary to impute to the parties "A premeditated or wicked intention to destroy or injure the interests of others." A man may commit a fraud without believing it to be a fraud. From the testimony before us, including the papers in the case of Dill Vs. Roseberry et al., it is evident that Enos Lackey believed that he had been relieved from all liability to plaintiff; he doubtless felt and believed that plaintiff had extended the time of payment of said note, thereby relieving him from liability. He did not feel morally bound to pay it; he believed that the plaintiff was the wrong-doer; he believed that he had a right to prefer his children, his sons. Thes defendants shared his feelings, they felt that they were doing no moral wrong in accepting the deeds.
—The following were the last words of his decision:
—I shall not say that the transfers were voluntary or fraudulent, but simply void as to the creditors of Enos Lackey. I do not attribute moral fraud, but pronounce the transactions fictitious. Looking at the probable views of the parties at the time these transfers were made, there appears to be no moral turpitude in it. I do not mean to even insinuate that there was any moral turpitude on the part of the Lackeys. I do not believe there was any. Yet I cannot believe that either law or equity can uphold these conveyances. Thse deeds are therefore held and declared to be void, and are set aside and held for naught. | Lackey, Enos (I7814)

This year an unusual large number came, and as we always do, met with a hearty welcome from Joseph and Ellen. The tables being in readiness, sheltered by large canvass coverings, seats for all were made. The ladies soon brought forth the baskets, spread the contents upon the tables, and the President invited all to be seated and partake thereof, and this they did to their own satisfaction.
—After dinner was over the President called the meeting to order to atten to any business there might be, minutes of 1914 meeting read, officers re-elected, all bills allowed and other business transacted. The afternoon was spent in conversation, drinking lemonade and eating ice cream. LaRue Carr of Xenia furnished the cream which was appreciated by all.
—Miss Annie Terry of Pasadena, California, Frank Howe, wife and daughters just back from California, Clarence Hamilton and family of Fort Wayne, Indiana and others from Dayton, Xenia, Selma , Springfield, Wilmington, and Farmersville; also Carleton Lawrence from Chicago was there. Altogether this was declared the best meeting yet. In the evening we adjourned each goin our way to meet at the same place the third Thursday in August 1916. —Mrs. Martha Davis, Secy. | Cleaver, Martha Edna (I8054)

—To many people, this coming Sunday, April 3rd, won't mean much. It will be just another Sunday. But to Mr. and Mrs. Leven Leeth it will be a very special day, for it will mark their 65th year of married life.Mr. and Mrs. Leeth are pictured above in their home one and one-half miles northeast of Tipton in Blue Creek township. They plan to spend the wedding anniversary day quietly at their home.
—Yes, 65 years ago, in 1884, Lven Leeth and Louisa Shelly were united in the holy bonds of wedlock at the bride
s home, north of Payne in Paulding County. And looking back over those 65 years Mr. Leeth who celebrated his 93rd birthday March 17th, and Mrs. Leeth will be 82 Junde 18th, both agree that they were all good years and happy ones. And they still are, for both Mr. and Mrs. Leeth are in remarkably good health and fine spirits - although they admit that they're beginning to notice their age a bit now and then.
—Paulding County Native
Mrs. Leeth is a true Paulding County native, for she was born near Payne, and has lived here all her life. And although Mr. Leeth can now consider himself as one of the oldest residents in Paulding County, he is not a real native of the place, for he was born in Pike County, and lived in Logan County a number of years before he came to live with his family in Harrison Township.
—Mr Leeth still remembers when he first came to Paulding County in 1872 when he was only 16 years old. The old canal was still in commission at the time, and still being used for freight. However, it was not long before the last boat to leave Antwerp on the canal was loaded with lumber and made the historical last trip. Mr Leeth can lay claim to a distinction of sorts, for he was one of the men that helped load the boat for its last trip.
—Reservoir Incident
Outstanding among the recollections in his mind of the days long since gone by, is one about the blowing up of the reservoir, the waters of which covered the land of several farmers who had their farms taken from them when the reservoir was built.
—He well remembers the feeling and talk that led up to the decision to blow it up, the quiet well organized group of 100 men or so, who loaded a half ton of dynamite into a wagon one night, calmly set the fuses and proceeded to blow the reservoir up. The water poured into the Maumee River, the men got their land back, no one was hurt, and as there was no following investigation, the whole incident turned out very successfully.
—Remembers Civil War
Although to most of us, the Civil War is just something to be studied and read about in school, to Mr. Leeth it is a part of his memories of his childhood. He remembers the day an official rode up to his parents home on a bay horse to serve draft orders on his father and how his mother cried. However, his father did as so many of his time did-and paid the customary bounty (in his case it was $300) to a fellow to act as substitute in his place.
—As a result, his father was still around at the time of Morgan's Raid on the area around Pike County, and was among the number of men who stood guard over various bridges to prevent Morgan from blowing them up.
—Sixty-five years of married life have blessed the Leeth's with a family of nine children )five boys and four girls) and well over-believe it or not-one hundred grandchildren and great grandchildren. In addition to this amazing figure, they claim three great-great-grandchildren.
—The children are: John Mathias, at home; Ethel, or Mrs. Frances Maxwell, near Fort Wayne; Charles Henry, West Manchester, Ohio; Annie Edith or Mrs. Johnas Brown, Rome City, Indiana; Harry Lindley, Fort Wayne; Rhoda Velta, or Mrs. Alfred Baughman, Holly, Michigan; David Edward, near Payne; and Lafayette Elias, Briceton. A daughter, Gertrude Louisa, died. | Shelley, Louisa Mae (I21)

In 1849 he went to Natchez, Mississippi and in 1854 to California, crossing via Nicaraugua. Later he crossed at Panama. He was a member of the expedition that attempted to build a telegraph line via Alaska to Asia.
