Jacob Bump Administrator for the Estate of Stannard v. Brigham Young and Joseph Smith: Jacob Bump revived a judgment that Claudius Stannard had obtained on a promissory note signed in October 1836 by Joseph Smith and Brigham Young for $250. Handled in the Geauga Court of Common Pleas, the sheriff eventually levied and auctioned four of Joseph Smith and Emma's properties to satisfy the debt. The properties remained unsold, however, for lack of bidding.
