Oregon Supreme Court May 18, 1909 (Ames v. Moore)

Opinion by

Mr. Chief Justice Moore.

1. In order to determine whether or not Mrs. Moore was competent to execute a valid contract on August 29, 1905, we shall examine the state of her health and her mental condition prior and subsequent to the signing of the deed. In November, 1902, she had an attack of pneumonia, which seemed to render her peevish and to impair her memory somewhat.
