Harry Barnes vs. Charity Robbins.

In May 1907, a Superior Court clerk issued a summons to Charity Robbins to appear in court to answer a complaint filed by Harry Barnes. Barnes was contesting ownership of a lot on the north side of Pine Street, adjoining lots owned by Pennie Bynum, Miley Barnes, and S.H. Vick.

Barnes requested and was granted permission to file his suit as a pauper, asserting that he was unable to pay costs associated with pursuing his case. I could not determine the outcome of this litigation.
