Notes for Isaac Lloyd
Isaac and his father John had a falling out late in his father’s life, with both John and his wife Ann leaving Isaac with no benefits from their wills. In the words of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court Report,
Lloyd versus Carter.
ERROR to the Common Pleas of Delaware County.
This was an action of ejectment brought by John Lloyd against his son Isaac Lloyd, to recover a lot of land in the borough of Chester, Delaware County. John Lloyd died after the insitution of the suit, and Carter, his executor, was subsituted.
Samuel Starr owned the lot in question in 1849. There was a house erected upon it in which Isaac Lloyd lived asa tenant of Starr, and kept a shoe store. He occupied all but a small building used as a hatter shop. On the 31st of December, 1849, he contracted with his landlord for the purchase of the property, agreeing to give him $2400for it, on the 1st of April following. Isaac Lloyd paid $160 rent. The hatter shop rented for $40.
On the 6th day of April, 1850, Isaac Lloyd paid $1200 of the purchase-money. Starr the same day executed and delivered a deed to him, and tookk a judgment for the residue of the purchase-money.
Soon after the deed was made, Isaac contracted with several mechanics for the erection of a large double brick building. The old buildings were torn down, and the new buildings completed in the course of the same summer. Its annual value was about $500. Isaac Lloyd, after the new building was erected, moved into one part,, and let the other to a tenant, and continued to occupy it up to the time of the trial of the ejectment.
Isaac Lloyd, in May, 1850, while his building was in progress, left home, and was absent two weeks. The idea went abroad that he had eloped, and his father, John Lloyd, the plaintiff, sued a foreign attachment against him, and directed the sheriff to attach the property in question, which was done.
After an absence of about two weeks, Isaac returned. Some short time elapsed, and this ejectment was instituted.
The ground assumed by the plaintiff at the trial was, that the property in question was held by Isaac for his father, by virtue of a parol trust; and he gave in evidence certain conversations of Isaac with two persons at different times,, to establish that allegation. One of those conversations was before the deed was executed (the length of time was not proved), but after the contract of the purchase was made. The other was two weeks after the deed was executed.
...
William H. Lane testified, that he purchased John Lloyd’s real estate in Nether Providence, about the 1st day of January, 1850 ; he was to pay for it $3300 ; that he paid $100 to Isaac Lloyd on the day he bought the place.578
