Description
BEALS, J. -- Christian Guler and his wife, both now deceased, were the parents of defendant, Margaretha A. Coate, and the owners of land in Klickitat county. Mrs. Guler died intestate, leaving defendant, who was the only child of her parents, as sole heir. Evidently, Mr. Guler assumed to manage the property, and in 1931, without defendants knowledge, he leased to Mt. Adams Lumber Company, a corporation, a tract of land near or adjoining the companys mill.Ralph E. Woodruff, plaintiff in this action, and his wife are, and apparently always have been, the owners of most, if not all, of the capital stock of Mt. Adams Lumber Company, Mr. Woodruff acting as president of the corporation. Shortly after entering into the lease with Mr. Guler, the corporation took possession of the demised real estate, and placed lumber and supplies on the property.
