Baker and Fred A. El- lis, both of Winnetka. The suit in- [volved the question of rights arising lout of a lease and option- respecting the property at 1071 Vine street, Win- netka. Baker, the lessee and optionee charged that Ellis, the lessor and optionor, re- fused to comply with the terms of the contract to sell the property to him. An interesting feature of the case was the fact that Ellis held the property in |joint tenancy with his wife, but the [outcome of the dispute made him re- sponsible for damages for the obliga- tion he incurred in making a contract to convey even though his joint tenant was not an executing party to the lease land option. The substantial sum allowed in dam- ages was due to the fact the lease and loption was made in 1921 and was breached in the Spring of 1924 when [the real estate had materially increased lin value. Mr. Baker, the plaintiff, was repre- |sented by Lloyd D. Heth and Andrew |D. Collins of Heth, Lister and Collins, lattorneys, and Mr. Ellis by attorneys Samuel B. Hill and Preston Boyden lof the firm of Henry S. Robbins and {Taylor, Miller, Dickinson and Smith. | GIVE GLEE CLUB DANCE A Valentine dance will be given by the North Shore Glee club at Win- The North Shore Dancing club will inetka Community House on Saturday 'give a dinner-dance at the Winnetka |evening, February 13, at 8:30 o'clock.
