LUND DISPUTE
IT SO. HI
Common Council to Heai
Case of Mechanicsville
Hose Co.; House in St.?
[By Evening News Correspondent.]
SOUTH AMBOY, July 12:—The
matter of the ownership of property
on Karitan street and Alpine street,
sold by John J. O’Neal to the Me
chanicsville Hose Company, will no
doubt be threshed out tonight at the
meeting of the common council when
the question of the ownership Of the
street is raised. Mr. O’Neal claims
that the property belongs to him and
is not a city street, but on the other
hand City Engineer A. T. McMlchael
and Attorney Leo J. Coakley, who is
representing the hose company,
claim it is a street and say that
O'Neal did not havp title.
The facts of the Case follow:
In 1871 Mary J. Roll and Sarah
Dey were the owners of all the prop
erty now known as Mechanicsville
and had the tract laid out into lots
and blocks by A. J. Disbrow, civil
engineer, and this map they adopted
and used in the sale of the lots in
the tract and while the map Is not
now on record in the county clerk’s
office many of the deeds given by
Roll & Dey recite the fact that it is
Sled there.
The property in question was
deeded by Roll & Dey to O’Neal in
May, 1892 (twenty-one years after
the date of the map), by warranty
. deed and the description of the prop
erty conveyed recites that It is ac
cording to the Disbrow map. Refer
ence to the map shows the existence
of the street at this point and a sur
vey of the property conveyed shows
conclusively the conveyance of the
Westerly end of Alpine street.
O’Neal is the owner of the proper
ties on both sides of Alpine street.
The first deed in his chain of title
Is 'from Roll & Dey in August, 1873,
and recites that it conveys property
lii Block D, according to the Disbrow
map.
The description states that the
property begins at the corner of
Alpine and Raritan streets and after
running to the Fouratt property,
which is in the rear of the property
conveyed, the third course of the de
scription states that it runs 100 feet
to Alpine street, thence along Alpine
street 105 feet, more or less, to Rar
itan street, the place of beginning.
This description is used in all the
subsequent transfers of this property
and was used by O’Neal himself
when he not only sold the property
but whan ha bought It All ot the
conveyances In question were by
warranty deed, and all state that the
property conveyed Is according to
the Dlsbrow map.
1 The de^d from O’Neal to the hose
company also says that he conveys
according to the Dlsbrow map. and
that the map la on record In the
Middlesex county clerk's office. This
conveyance was made In January,
1921.
The hose company let the contract
for the building and after It was
erected applied to the Investors &
Owners Building Loan for a loan and
It was while Mr. Coakley was mak
ing the search for the building loan
that the discrepancy was discovered.
The opinion of Mr. Coakley that this
property was a street was borne out
by the survey of the city engineer
and the matter was then brought to
the attention of the common council
by Mr. Coakley, with the request
that the street be vacated at this
point in order to clear up the title.
Mr. McMichael claims that every
map of the city shows the existence
of Alpine street at this point and the
heirs of the Rolls and Deys admit
that the map does show this street
but that it was not Intended to be
used as a street at the time they sold
it to O’Neal. The Fouratt family
(the owners of property in the rear
of this piece) claim that It was al
ways a street and they insist that it
be opened to travel. The action of
the common council Is awaited with
much interest by the public who are
anxious to see the hose company re
lieved of their difficulty.

Other than the fact that a shipment of
Sweet Dreams was recently made to the

look as though a remedy worthy of being
shipped this great distance is certainly
worthy of consideration at home.
It is to be deduced that your own home
Is the home referred to, and It is earn
estly requested that you give Sweet |
Dreams a trial. Sweet Dreams Is offered
as the very best mosquito remedy to be
