The following statement Is made by Attorney George M. Okell, concerning the McAndrew case reported In The Tribune of Saturday: Last August, while attorney for the Dunmore school board, I had occasion to call on the McAndrews a number of times In reference to a bad deed which they had given to Bjron Brad. On one of my visits they Informed me that P. D. Manley, of Dunmore, and the Dime Sav ings bank were endeavoring, ! unscrup ulous methods, to steal their properly from them, such as ararnglng with thu insurance agent to cancel the- policy to give them an opportunity to. foreclose, etc , and that they desired to transfer tho loan to strangers, and asked mo If t could negotiate a loan fur S.J.500, and that tho Interest was all paid up I Immediately mado application to tho Scranton Savings bank for 2M0. and also to Attorney Capwell, who Informed me he could set tho loan, but that It would probably take seeral weeks Some time later I met Capwell nnd ho Informed me that he could rot make tho loan for the reason that he found the- property had just been advcrllhed for sheriff's sale. This was tho first knowlcdgo I had of tho property being In the hands of the sheriff. I Immediately called upon the McAn drews and Informed them I tould not make tho loan, and to apply elsewhere. They Informed mo that they hail and could not set the loan, and that It was no use to bother trlns tiny further, and that they would dn nn thing so that Manley and the test could not get tho property. They offered to trunsfei It to mo provided I would stay the sale and buy off tho mortgage. 1 informed them I had not tho money at the tlmo and could not do bo, and at their request Informed them I would try to seo what I could do for them, and sug gested that I might probably Interest my father, to which they gladly assented. I Immediately telephoned to my father In New York, and ho Informed mo that If tho property was worth tho money hu would buy It. and Immediately sent on a check. I went up to their house and had them execute a deed. Immediately af ter they had deeded tho property to mv father I told them that father would agree to give them a j ear's rent free, with a lease and a receipt for ono jears rent, which I gavo them. , I told them that If. during tho jear, the? could get a purchaser for the prop erty, I could arrange with my father to sell It bflck to them for a fair price, or to buy one that they directed; also that If they could sell an) lots to do so, and I would arrango with my father to glvo them a liberal division of the purchase money, and Immediately sent them a sign, In pursuance to this agreement, which I understand thev hid. I Immediately went over to tho sheriff to pay off the mortgage, but the sheriff requested poundage, which 1 declined to pay, and Instead I decided to take an assignment of tho judgment from Mr. Comegjs. who held nn assignment of tho bank's Judgment. Mr. Comegjs was sick, but a few dajs later, upon payment of the debt. Interest and cost which had nc cumulated, amounting to about $2,S0i), ho made the assignment to me. Being In Montreal on business at the time. Attorney Hlco looked after tho mat ter, and the mortgage nnd judgment were both satisfied with the bank some dah before tho suit was brought. I have of fered theso parties, and persons whom they havo sent to mo about this matter, to re-convey the property nt any time according to our understanding, and to carry out my promise, which they nave been Inclined to Ignore, nnd they Inti mated that unless I camo to their terms they would give me notoriety and black mail me, which they are endeavoring to do. The facts alleged by the McAnlrews In their bill of equity aro false, concerning alleged rcniescntitlons that I mado them, or that I refused to arrange to have tho property re convejed. I wah never their attorney In nuv thing except In negotiating the lean, but O'Brien & Kelly wero their attorney p. I suggest the public do not pass opin ion until the matter has been determined by duo courso of litigation. George M, Okell. Sworn nnd subscribed to this 21th day of March, A.
