Decatur County Journal
August 4, l898

ARMILDA GAMMON vs. BIRD L. GAMMON et al. The plaintiff states that in
March, l896, she purchased property in Decatur County for the purpose of
making it her home and at that time entered into an agreement with the
defendants, BIRD L. GAMMON and ROSA B. GAMMON by which plaintiff agreed
to buy a team of horses, plows, farming utensils of various kinds, cow,
hogs and other stock to be kept and used upon said premises; said stock
and farming implements to be and remain the property of this plaintiff
during her life time. The defendants further agreed to maintain, care
for, and support this plaintiff and in consideration of this maintenance
of plaintiff was at her death to become absolute owners of said real
estate and personal property. The defendants also agreed to farm this
land and pay the taxes and keep up the repairs. The plaintiff further
states that the defendants have failed to keep their part of the
contract by failing to support the plaintiff and by running accounts at
certain stores in Davis City in her name. Therefore, the plaintiff asks
that a temporary injunction be issued to restrain said defendants from
removing any of the said personal property from the premises and be
restrained from disposing of the crop and that upon final hearing, said
injunction be perpetual and for such other and further relief as may be
just and equitable in the premises and for costs.

V.R. MCGINNIS for Plaintiff.
