Scope and Content

October 6, 1894 letter from I. H. Phelps in Akron, Ohio to D.W. Hine, Newton Falls, Ohio, regarding a case. "Akron, Ohio, Oct. 6th 1894 D.W. Hines -Atty- Newton Falls - Ohio- Dear Sir - Your LEtter of recent date, in reference to the alimony case of Huton vs Hutson was duly received and I have delayed replying there to in order that I might have a personal interest with Mrs. Hutson, which I did last evening as Mantua. I think I fully understand the situation in which Mr. Hutson is placed and I cannot think that he is wholly to blame. I called Mr Nichols into the case for the purpose of the trial in my absence and I supposed that would be the end of his services. But I am satisfied that he is advising Mrs Hudson with the idea of making more fees and of the case. Mrs Hudson said to me that she would meet me at Ravenna any time I would notify her by telegram to make a settlement upton the basis of her signing a deed to the farm. She will accept $500.00 and sign a deed for the farm and release all claim to further alimony or she will take $400.00 and release her claim for alimony and not sign the deed. If your client wishes to accept either of these propositions, write me to that effect + I will meet yourself and the parties at Ravenna next Wednesday to sign papers and carry out the settlement. Let me hear from you as early as possible Yours Truly I H Phelps Atty"
