When the eivil court came in on Thursday morning for the resumption of the case of Perue vs. the’ Connecti- cut company, there was a conference among those Interested most in the matter, which resulted in a statement HENDRICK SUIT IN WATERBURY COURT Attorney Thayer Severely Arraigns Attorney Rogers in Case Regarding “If that Is practicing law, God help the people at large. It is quite an- other thing for two men to have a quarrel and each try to get the best of the other, but when a lawyer plans to use his office for that purpose it is no better than highway robbery; it is piracy of the worst kind." The above remarks were made in the superior court before Judge Milton A, Shumway and a room full of spec- tators, Wednesday afternoon, by Attor- ney Charles ¥. Thayer of Norwich, counsel for Philip Hendrick, in the action brought by Attorney E. Rogers, Waterbury, against Hend The case came up on a plea of abate- ment and was partly heard last week, at which time Attorney Rogers was submitted to a scorching cross-exam- ination by Attorney Thayer. The latter promised last week to bring in some sensational details if Attorney Robert A. Lowe should appear on the stand as a witne n support of Attorney Ro ers, his son-in-law, but Attorney Lowe | sent word that he was ill and unable to appear in court, says the Waterbury Republican. Hendrick on Stand. Mr. Hendrick was on the witness stand when court adjourned last weck, and he was cross-examined Wedne: day morning by Attorney John O'Neill, counsel for Mr. Rogers. Mr, Hendrick proved a good witness for himself and managed to evade all questions of an entangling nature. He told of the transactions entered into hy himself, Robert A. Lowe, Floyd i. Andrews and Samuel Lipshitz, to purchase a piece of property in Brooklyn, N. Y., and of the alleged attempt of Robert A, Lowe, Lipshitz and Rogers to beat him out of his legitimate share of the proper- ty. In reply to Attorney O'Neill, Mr. Hendrick “said he was engaged in the real estate business \ Norwich and New York at present, but for many years he had been engaged in mercan- til life, He said he was postmaster in Taftyille for five years and gaged in business i Te said he owne string horses at the time and he neglected his business so that his clerks robbed j him. He sair his estate was still in | process of settlement. Brooklyn Realty Deal. Going into the details of the trouble | between himself and Robert A. Lowe which led to the present legal row, Mr. Hendrick said he sold several lots for Judgge Lowe in Brooklyn, and also purchased more lots, valued at $30, 000, which Judge Lowe now ow LH When the deal over the piece of prop- erty which is now involved came up, he admitted that he made some extra money which he refused to divide with Rogers and Lowe, and the latter then started to cause him trouble. Mr. Hendrick reviewed his testimony of last week, in which he said he was threatened by Rogers and Lowe that f he did not settle the case against him they would tie him up so that he would be unable to do any more bu ness. He told of the suits starte: ness. He then told of the suits started against him in Norwich in which an attempt was made to attach his body when he had never been given an op- portunity to settle any claims, He £aid he had a suit now pending against Judge Lowe in New York. Attorney O'Neill Examines. Attorney Rogers was called to th witness stand by Mr. O'Neill and pr sented eeveral Tletters and checks which had a tendency to show that there had been an attempt at sharp dealing upon the part of Mr. Hend- rick. He denied that he had attempt- ed to harass Mr, Hendrick, but when turned over to Attorney Thayer for cross-examination he was again sub- Jected to a severe grilling. Going over the previous testimony, Attorney Thaver made Mr. Rogers ad- mit that he had entered into a deal to purchase a contract for a judgment, before that judgment had been ren- dered against Hendrick, and that he had never asked Mr. Hendrick to pay the judgment at any time before, bringing suit. He aiso admitted that he had caused a second writ to be is- sued against Hendrick calling for the attachment of his body. without look- ing for any property to satisfy his claim, He denied that he had used any filthy language to Hendrick when the latter had called at his office. In drawing up the papers he said he left a blank space for the amount of the judgment, $3,101.42, the figures being fliled in later. Regrets for Judge Lowe. Tn opening the argument for his client, Mr. Thayer expressed his dis- appointment at the absence of Judge Towe from the case, and then started in on a merciless arraignment of At- torney Rogers, who, he said, was try- ing to use the superior court to fur- ther his personal ends. 3 During the argument Attorney Thayer was intérrupted by Mr, Rog- ers, who disputed the statement thut he had ‘ever testified that he held up the second suit until Mr. Hendrick came tg Watserbnry 'wkrfl" mn“x’- ters. ourt Stenographer mas W. #:bh was then called upon to read the testimony from his notes, and Mr. Thayer was supported, Qath of Office Recalled. “When you took the oath of office as an attorney, an officer of the court,” said Mr. Thayer, looking at Mr. Rog- ers, and pounding the tble, “you took a solemn oath ‘you will not wit- tingly or willin promote, sue cause to be sued, any false or unlaw- ful suit, or give aid. or consent to the taken. There is a will pro mr{ o-i‘::ar list for today, including a number of divore: Decisions Handed Down. On Thu Judge Reed handed down four decisions, as follows: The motion for the getting aside of the non-suit in the case of Kruck, ad the Connecticut company mx., was denied. A dlvorce was granted Gena W. Fer- guson from Henry W. Ferguson, on the grounds of desertion. The motion for the setting aside of the sverdict fo $1,600 in the case of Park, adm., vs. the eity of New Lon- don, which was recently argued, has been set aside. Judge Reed granted the motion for the appointment of a jury of six to re- eswnat;“!h‘e“g:m-m In t:ne cmmfl:( the Al Mllls company, inc., vs. the town of Montville. The motion was asked for by the town of Montville. The com y claims da s for change in lfi:andC of the highway, and by three commissioners were awarded $1,00. of attorney, within the court wherein you may practice, according to the best of your learning and discretion, and with fidelity, as well to the court as to your client; ho help your God.'” Turning to Judge Shumway, Mr. Thayer then said: “This attorney has made an attempt to use the highest branch of the gov- ernment to do t thing which the statutes absolutely forbld. He e tered into a deal with Attorney Rabell in New York, who was counsel for and against Robert A. Lowe, and with Samue! Lipshitz, to tie up Hendrick in his property so that he would be forc- ed to give up. Then they told Hen- drick when they got him over to Waterbnry they wouldn’t do a thing to him. It is a poor advertisement for Waterbury to have suc ha nimpres- slon get abroad that such attorne can use the courts to further their own ends. In closing, Mr, Thayer argued that the decision should 'be against Rog- ers because he was not the bona fide owner of the claim he presented against Hendrick at the time he brought the action, In hig argument in support of the claims of Mr. Rogers, Attorney O'Neill said his client was acting within his rights and he considered Hendrick as a sharp operato Judge Shumway took the papers and the decision will be handed down s then adjourned.
