     Henry Hunt O'Rear had accumlated a lot of property in East Chattanooga, TN. After he retired Henry's son begged his father to loan him money so he could build up another area of Chattanooga. Henry very reluctantly loaned the money but insisted that his son must repay the bank note promptly since he had put his property up as collateral. The son did not pay and Henry didn't have the money to pay. The bank took Henry's property and auctioned it. The son purchased the property by auction and left his father destitute.
