Emil Van Espen              } Order on Demurrer
                  Deft      }
               This cause is before me on the Demurrer to the Bill of
complaint and has been elaborately argued by the solicitors of the
respective parties - I do not think that the 1st 2nd & 4th grounds of
Demurrer are well taken & I am of opinion that that 3 & 5 are well
taken. The 5th ground I especially remark upon = It seems to me the
Bill contains two inconsistant statements of fact upon which the
court is asked to grant relief. The strongest case complainants
have produced is that of Hardin vs Boyd 113 USSC 756-
but in that case the alternate relief asked for was based
on the same facts upon which the principal relief was asked
for was based on the same facts upon which the principal relief
was asked = It is ordered adjudged & decreed that the 1st 2nd & 4th grounds
of demurrer be and the same are hereby overruled and that the 3rd and
5th grounds of demurrer be and the same are hereby sustained complainants
have leave to amend the Bill in accordance with this order
