Notes - Cassity Will Case
In Judge Fred Lamb’s court Friday morning the case of V.M. Cassity et al vs. Fred E. Cassity came on for trial the plaintiffs sought to have the will of the late Armstrong Cassity set aside. Seventy witnesses were present and a strong array of legal talent. The trial consumed Friday and late Saturday evening the case was passed over to the jury which did not require much time in returning a verdict in favor of the plaintiffs.
