The Ann Arbor House Subject to Widow Dower.

Pontiac, Mich., July 18.
- Judge Smith has handed down his decision in the South Lyon bank failure case.
The decree of Judge Smith is that the so-called elevator property at South Lyon, appraised at $6,300, is the property of Just & Co. and the title thereto is declared to be in William J. Just, as assignee.
The Ann Arbor property, appraised at $1,800, likewise belongs to Just & Co., but is subject to the dower claim of Ella V. Just wife of the deceased Josiah E. Just.
The assignee shall dispose of this in common with the other assets of Just & Co. and pay to the widow her dower at its present worth.
A second parcel of land at South Lyon is also declared to be the property of Just & Co. , and the administrator of the Just estate is directed to strike this parcel from his inventory of assets.
The court finds that the claims of the Ionia County Savings Bank and Samuel J. Webber are individual claims against the Just estate and are hence disallowed.
