Porter's part Indian common law wife has sued him in Elk county district court for divorce and responsible settlement. She has lived with him for more than thirteen years and he has repeatedly acknowledged her as his wife. She alleges through her attorney, P. S. Davis of Tulsa, that Porter has more than 9,000 acres of land and by reason of immense profits in oil properties is worth at least $20,000,000.00. This is likely to be a case as rich as the Jackson Barnett case, before it is through.
