When the court of common pleas came in here Wednesday with a jury argu- ments were continued in the case of Avery White and were made by Attorneys Hull and Shields. They were completed shortly after noon and Judge Waller took forty minutes in his charge, after which there was the Tecess for dinner, and at 3 o'clock the jury was sent out to consider the mat- ter. They were out until .17 o'clock, when they returned with a verdict for the plaintiff to recover $500 and costs. John B. Feclestcne was the foreman. It is understood an appeal will be taken. A jury was then selecte? and the trial of the case of Brown & Perkins vs, Lafayette Main was started. Mr. Main appears for himself, but Attorney W. H. Shields appears for the plain- tiffs, This is a sult to recover $242.46. the balance on an account for law se vices given the defendant during the trouble over a heifer several years ago, Donald G. Perkins was the first wit- ness and after making & statement to Mr. Shields of the claim was taken in hand by Mr. Main. Mr. Main had brought into court a number of books and papers and was accompanied by his two small girls. He asked many questions of Mr. Perkins, to a number of which Mr. Perkins replied “I can't remember or “I don't kno 1 that It seemed to remember the most connected with the uldn't things He presented a bill which he claimed had beea submitted to him naming 3.10 as the amount, but Mr, Perkins sa'd he knew nothing about such a bill ana that it looked as though part of it was missing. ‘Mr. Perkins explained that $37.50 paid to the firm in September, 1902, Went to pay the costs of taking the case to the supreme court and was pald over to State’s Attorney Lucas and not pald on account. Mr. Perkins did not recall sending Mr. Main to Mr. Shields' office, after which Mr. Main produced a paper with a statement from Mr, Shields written upon it which he said he offered to see if he could make Mr, Perkins recall something. Mr, Perkins said that he did not know of any bills being sent to Mr. Main until within two or three years, as he did not want to embarrass him while he was away and wanted o give him a chance to get straightened out on his return. He has asked Mr, Ma'n several times for the money and been promised he would be paid. He never promised to compromise.| Mr. Maln was warned by the court that he must refrain from puttlnf in his own evidence until the proper time. He did as well in the conduct of hi case as a layman could be expected to do. He claimed that Mr. Perkins did not call a number of witnesses in a case of his and therefore was negli- gent. In response to & question from Mr. Main, Mr. Perkins said he had stated that he belleved he was dnno- cent in a certain case and he stil] be- leves it. At § o'clock court was adjourned un- ul 1his morning. A number of lawyers were in the court room watching thi proceedings. Judge Brown, who ooccupled the bench In the case of Greene vs. Bra- gaw cf New London, a case which was recently heard here, has handed down a decision in the case for the defendant to recover his costa LENTEN CONCERT AT SECOND CHURCH | Given by Improvement Society—Excel- lent Artists and Large Audience.

This was at the Mur- phy millinery store in Greeneville, causing the only considerable fire of the month. NORWICH TOWN.

Fire buckets were in almost every house. Theésa were of leather with leather handles. The buckets were 16 inches high and 10 inches in diam- eter and easy to use. On each was its number and the name of the owner. The Green on every other Saturday afternoon was a lively place. Then the fire dril] was held. The Torrent.was filled with water from the river, taken up In front of the church, and jets of water were thrown over the church for practice. Such men as Henry McNally, George Jones and Joseph ~ Carpenter, with many more of 4 former generation: George Yeomans, Joseph Grifin Wil- liam Goodell—thirty or forty of them —with their captain, Benjamin Hunt- ington, made up the company, Their red flannel jackets and tall hats gave color, while the crowds watching them added life to the scene. The Torrent was taken down town over thirty years ago and presented to the Thamesville fire company. went to the Philadelphia centennial: much was said hbout it in the papers.
