Instead, he says, an effort was made to impress the Americans in the Haitian serv- ice. Campbell escaped by swimming ashore, and upon reaching America at once made claim to $100,000 against the foreign gov- ernment. While pushing his claim he lived at Dexter’s home and received from him $102, besides board. Believing he would re- ceive the full amount of his claim, Camp- bell assigned a $1,000 interest in it to Dex- ter, who, in turn, assigned $250 to Abigail Quinn. Campbell was awarded only $10,000 and now he declares the $1,000 assigned to Dexter should be reduced accordingly. ———__ Prices are cut very low in Hoeke's Clear- ing Sale.—Advt.
