Lucy Dugas Tillman. Sworn to before me this 7th day of November, 1910. Edwin H. Wells, Notary Publie for South Carolina. Answer. The defendant herein for answer to the complaint of the above named plaintiff shows unto the court and alleges: 1. That all of the allegations of the said complaints which P-P not herein after specifically adm,Lad are denied. 2. That the allegation of paragraph 1 is admitted and so much of para graph 4 as alleges a demand on this defendant for payment and his re fusal. 3. That the allegations of fact in paragraphs 2 and 3 are incorrect and psaintiT 's mis-ak-u :n hec al&est tions of fact therein contained, and? also so much of paragraph 4 as al leges any amount due and owing by1 this defendant to said plaintiff.] 4. That defendant, further answer ing the said complaint, and by way of) defense thereto alleges: That hereto fore, on the 29th day of December,, 1.903, this defendant and plaintiff were married and thereafter continued to live together as man and wife until the - day of November, 1908, when certain differences arose which brought about a temporary separation and they Ilived apart until during the! month of January, 1909, when a re conciliation was had and they again lived together from February, 1909, until November, 1909, when a separa tion again occurred, which exists at the present time. That during their l married life they had born to them H two children, both of whom are now living with their mother, the plaintiff herein.( 5. As a further defense of the whole cause of action defendant alleges: That immediately upon the marriage of rAaintiff and defendant plaintiff turned over to this defendant as her husband, all her property and affairs to be managed by him to the best of his judgment and ability for their mu tual benefit. (B) That the plaintiff, his said wife, was the owner of a certain tract of land near town of Edgefield, which 11ad on account of inattention become badly dilapidated and had very little ,renta& value and yielded annually to1 her only about $250 from all sources. (C)~ That defendant at once under took to improve anid build up the said place and gave it considerable time and attention with this in view and expended thereon large sums of money in building acd repairing houses, fences and otherwise building up and 'improving the said place, so that as -a result of his said 'labors, efforts and -expenditures in this behalf the said plantation now yields a revenue of about four times as much as it did originally. 6. That said improvements and ex penditures were made from moneys received from his said wife from time to time and proceeds of the place and from his own individual funds, and in addition to these items of expenditure the defendant paid insurance on the buildings and taxes on the property~ and generally paid. all items and amounts of every kind incurred in ref-: erence to the said plantation and other property of his said wife, and farmed a portion of said lands himself, and during each year paid out large sums of money to laborers who were en gaged therein during the said time.; 7. That plaintiff never required and neior inten(ed that any account should be kept by this defendant, her said husband, of the money and funds which came into his hands from her property or the funds expended there on by this defendant from that source and from his own private funds and no accurate account in detail was kept, it being the intention and purpose of both parties that the funds should be used for the mutual benefit of defend ant and plaintiff and their said chil dren as a family and they were soi used and expended. That sh- knew that no acccunt was being kept and that the funds were being expended by Icth herself and the defendant without any account being kept and for the mutual benefit of both parties, which was authorized by her and ac quiesced in by her. That large sums of money received from her property and from her said plantation were ex pended by the plaintiff for .her own personal comfort and pleasure and in addition thereto other large sums of money from time to time were fur nished her by this defendant from his own private funds. That this defend ant also . expended during the said time on himself and on his wife and children a considerable amount of money. That during said time he re -eived an annual salary of some $2, 000, and in addition to this other sums that he made from time to time, all of which was expended by defendant and his said wife during their married life on the said place and for their own personal comfort and pleasure, no ac count of which was kept or attempted to be kept. That during the said pe riod of time mentioned hereinabove this defendant, as near as he can esti mate it, spent some $10,000 or more of his own private funds as alleged here inabove. 8. That this defendant has not now nor since the separation of himself and wife, nor at the time thereof, had any sum or amount whatever of the Nunds received from his said wife or her property. That he received the said funds solely on account of the martial relationship and without any [ntention on the part of either himself :r his said wife that ne should ever >e called upon or required to account therefor or any part thereof to her or anyone else. That the relation of lebtor and creditor never existed be 'ween himself and his said wife in the iatters set out herein. 9. That during the entire married life of plaintiff and defendant when :hey lived together as man and wife, is hereinabove alleged, this defend mnt was the sole manager of the prop arty of himself and wife, claiming and ising the profits of the place and the roperty as his own for the joint sup >ort of himse!af and his said wife, pending the same as he pleased and s unto him seemed best for their said ioint benefit, and that the plaintiff ierein, his said wife, was at all times ognizant thereof and .permitted, au horized and ratified the same and did iot any time object thereto. He therefore prays that the com laint be dismissed with costs. Grier & Park, .Defendant's Attorneys. STATEMENT. Of the condition of the Farmers' Lnd Merchants Bank, located at Little vountain, S.
