5. Newspaper: Indianapolis News: Supreme Court Case for John C. Hale and Charles Hale, 21 Feb 1881, Indianapolis, Marion, IN. 8 SUPREME COURT
The following cases were decided Saturday, February 19, 1881:
SUIT TO QUIET TITLE
7105. Isaac N. Talbott vs. John C. Hale. Tippecanoe Circuit Court. Reversed. Niblack, C. J.
Suit by Isaac N. Talbott against John C. Hale and Charles Hale, to recover the possession of and quiet the title to a certain piece of real estate in Benton county. The court made a special finding on the facts. The land had at one time been sold at sheriff sale on a judgment with relief from valuation and appraisement laws. Among other things the special finding was that the land was sold without first being appraised.
(1.) So much of the special finding as asserts that the land in suit was sold without appraisement was not sustained by any evidence, either oral or written. The return of said sheriff to the execution upon which the sale was made did not state whether or not the land was appraised before it was sold, and nothing was disclosed on that subject by any of the other evidence at the trial.
(2.) The regularity of the proceedings by the sheriff should have been presumed, in making the special finding, until the contrary was shown.
(3.) It devolved upon the party attacking the sheriff's sale, to show in some way that there had been no appraisement.

6. Census in 1900 in Redkey, Jay, IN. 9 The 1900 census recorded living on Main Street: Charles Hale, live stock dealer, 52, born Feb 1848, living with wife Cena, 42, Oct 1858; and son Kile, 16, Jan 1884. Charles and Cena were married for 18 years. Curiously, the census column states Cena had born 0 children, yet an 18-year marriage in 1882 would be before his birth. Everyone and their parents were born in Indiana except Charles' parents in Maryland.
