      Henry Rupe bought land from J Hacket who did not give him the deed, Moses Russell deeded it first to Jeremiah Hacket, dec, who sold it to Rupe. Jane said her husband mortgaged land to Daniel Rathburn in 1824. Her husband dided without getting the money about July 1826. Left 8 children, all but one a minor. Jane could not pay money due. May 20, 1830 she agreed to sell 11 of 100 acres to Rathburn and she used the money to pay him. Her son, Basil Hacket, has since paid Rathburn off. She stated that she was ignorant of the law and did not know that she could not sell 11 acres, but she has since been told she could not, so did not furnish a deed. Rathburn has refused to let her buy it back and has lived there. Henry Rupe died May 20, 1836. Land ordered returned to Jane and Jane to pay costs.
