Supreme Court of Minnesota February 20, 1920, No. 21,496 (Baker v. McCarthy)

Hallam, J.

Ejectment to recover land in Becker county, formerly in the White Earth Indian Reservation. Before 1897, Alexander Boy, an adult mixed-blood Indian, made application to have this land allotted to him. The application was approved by the secretary of the interior, and in 1902 there was issued a so-called trust patent in the name of Alexander Roy.

Roy died in November, 1897.
