 Item
Identifier: CDET III-2-i

Scope and Contents

A man named Riley, for a long time a resident of Detroit and owner of property there, had a lawsuit with a family of Jews. Fearing he might be found guilty of a charge of false swearing, Riley left Detroit with his family. Riley had made his property over to his brother in Canada who made it over to Riley's children. Riley gave the management of the entire property to a lawyer, G. T. Sheldon . He has reason to suspect that this lawyer is not dealing fairly. Riley asked Houlahan to ask Lefevere to make inquiries about it but requests that he let no one know where he is. Riley's son William serves Houlahan's Mass. He encloses a list of the property as Riley handed it to him no enclosure. :: III-2-i A.L.S. 3pp. 8vo.
