Fauntleroy v. Wilcox

This was a bill in equity, brought by Sextius FT. Wilcox and Lester C. Morgan, in the Superior Court of Cook county, against Henry Fauntleroy, F. S. Fauntleroy, and Eugene Fauntleroy, to recover the purchase price of certain logs, under a contract in writing, and to close up a joint adventure created under said written contract. The defendants answered the bill, and also filed a cross-bill. Both were heard together, and on the hearing the cross-bill was dismissed, and relief was decreed under the bill. To reverse the decree, the defendants in the bill have brought this appeal.
