Parties | McCOLLUM v. CRAIN. |
Court | Missouri Court of Appeals |
Appeal from Circuit Court, Cape Girardeau County; Henry C. Riley, Judge.
Action by Annette J. McCollum against George A. Crain. Judgment for defendant. Plaintiff appeals. Affirmed.
On June 3, 1901, Callie G. Boughton recovered in the Cape Girardeau court of common pleas a judgment against Jesse W. McCollum for $600. An execution was issued on this judgment, and delivered to the sheriff of Stoddard county, who, by direction of plaintiff and her attorney, levied upon the following lots in the city of Dexter, in the said county, as the property of Jesse McCollum, to wit: After the levy was made the lots were duly advertised by the sheriff for sale. Before the day of sale, plaintiff sued out a temporary writ of injunction against the sheriff, restraining the sale of said lots. Plaintiff claimed to be the owner in fee of all of said lots, and alleged that the sale under the execution would cast a cloud over her title, and do her irreparable injury. The answer alleged that the suit in which the judgment was rendered was commenced in June, 1895, and was continuously pending until the final judgment was rendered; that, when the suit was commenced, Jesse McCollum was the owner in fee of all the lots levied upon, but that pending the suit he made a voluntary conveyance thereof to his wife (the plaintiff) and two of his minor children, with the intent to hinder and delay plaintiff in the collection of her demand. The reply denied generally the affirmative allegations in the answer. On the trial the following admissions were made: To show title in her, plaintiff read in evidence the following deeds: First. A deed dated February 19, 1889, from the trustees of Dexter Hall Company (of which Jesse McCollum was one) to plaintiff, to lots 16 and 17 in block 16, original town of Dexter, duly acknowledged and recorded February 19, 1889. Second. Deed from Jesse W. McCollum and wife to Russell A. Sisler, dated December 2, 1898, conveying 90 feet off of the north end of lots 1 and 2, block 21, original town of Dexter, duly acknowledged and recorded. Third. Deed from Jesse W. McCollum and A. J McCollum, his wife, dated March 23, 1898, to Russell A. Sisler, conveying "all of lots 14, 15, 16, and 17, block 16, of the city of Dexter, 70 feet off of the north end of lots 14 and 15, block 21, of the city of Dexter lots 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7, block 4, of McCollum's addition to the city of Dexter, 30 feet off of the north end of lots 16 and 17,...
