I RICHARDSON COUNTY MAN SWINDLED OUT OF FARM STELLA, Neb., June S. (Special.) John Howater, who lives with Charles Smith south of Dawson, has been swindled out of a Kinkald homestead In ' Thomas county. It la alleged. He proved up on the MO-acre tract, but owing to 111 health de cided to leave the sandhills country. A. man grving the name of Willis and pur porting to be from Seneca. Neb., talked him into trading the homestead for a residence In Grand Island supposed to be worth $3,000. After the deed was made and delivered another man came along and described a splendid timber tract of 260 acres in Washington county, Georgia, and induced Mr. Howater to exchange the Grand Island residence for the Georgia timber land. Mr. Howater then having his borses. Implements and potato crop on bis hands again met Willis, the man who had traded him out of his homestead. Willis, so he stated, had 250 acres which joined Mr. Howater's nerw Georgia land, and he traded this to him for the horses, Implements and potato crop. Mr. Howarth became suspicious and a few weeks ago he took: two warranty deeds for 200 acres each to F. P. Page, a real estate agent at Dawson. He found the deeds faulty but the. abstracts ap peared genuine. He wrote the men who gave the deeds, and the lotters were re turned undelivered. At last the agent wrote to the treasurer of Washington county, Georgia, who replied there waa ho such land in the county as the deeds described. Mr. Howater Is nearly SO years old and unable to do any manual labor. An effort will be made to see if there is some way whereby he can recover his loss. Tree Has Hard Lark.
