Al IREAOH OF CONTRACT Company in Superior Court. The evidence in the suit of Walter O. Whitaker vs. the Thames River Speciaities company for $18,000 dam- ages for alleged breach of contract seemed nearly all in when the supe- rior court adjourned here Thursday afternoon at 4.30 o'clock. Attorney J. J. Desmond, for the plaintiff, said he had one more witness then to introduce in rebuttal. In the afternoon session of court on Thursday Theodore Foster of Spring- field, by whom Mr. Whitaker was em- ployed as superintendent in a per mill before going to the Thames River Specialties company, testifed that his | mill had trouble with its.product the whole of the first 5Lar of operation and and Mr. Foster would have kept kim in his employ if he had not gone to the Thames River Specialties compa- ny. On cross examination Major Hull brought out that Mr. Foster had had no experience with board of the grade made at the Thames River Specialties compa: Mr. Whitaker, the plaintiff, was re- called to the stand by his counsel. He testified that the mill was running steadily from October to Dec. 29, 1910, except for occasional shutdowns through some machinery trouble. He said he knew of no trouble between himself and the force at the mill and he did not know of any dissatisfaction lnmtthStock Agoodmwd-duw-a SUIT NEARING END. |small “assortment of Garden Whitaker vs. Thames River Specialties | Speds.
