At the, interview which' resulted it was discovered ‘that prac- | tically all his property was in the hands of Judge Storrs, and efforts were then made to get it back into his pos- session. 3 ., Andrew Gurley was in poor heaith, 'and a good deal of the interviewing of the attorneys was doné by his brother. As a result of the condition of Andrew ‘Gurley, an application for a conserva- tor was made, and George Gurley, tae eon of Albert, was appolnted. Was_Resident of Windham. Previous to this time, and less than six months from™she time when An- drew Gurley went to live in Mansfleld, he came or was brought down_ to his brother Albert’s home, so that he was a resident of Windham, and the matter went through, -this probate court. Judge Storrs Is the judge of probate in Mansfield, and it was intimated by the defense . that the change of residence was made to keep the matter out of his jurisdiction, as he was an interested arty. P%The upshot of the matter was that the sum of $80,000 or so was obtained and turned over to the conservator. Then Albert E. Gurley put in a bill for $5,000 for his services in collecting the money, which was not allowed. In the probate court Mr. Gurley condue ed his own case and the proceeding occasioned considerable comment at the time.' A The contention of the plaintiff in the present case is that he was acting for his brother, at his request, and was promised compensation for his ser- vices, while the defense sought to Prove that he did no great amount of work, had said he would take no pay £6r it, and that the attorneys who had been engaged were the parties who collected the money for the conser- vator. An unusual feature in the case was the introduction of a statement by Attornev S. B. Harvey, Who con- ducted the defense, agreed to by the cther side, of the events in which ‘he had taken part prior to this suit. The paper was to take the place of oral testimony by an attorney in the case. Mr. Harvey was cross examined by At- torney Searls, the same as if he had testified, and admitted that he had had many controversies with Albert E. Gurley in the course of recovering the money, and few with Andrew. Plaintiff’s Side. The only witnesses for the plainti®f were himself and his son George. Mr. Gurley told of learning from his broth- er that his money was tied up in Judge Storrs’ hands, and that he offered fo ald him in recovering it. The offer was gratefully received. He then ‘detailed what he did toward the ob- ct in view, including a trip to Hart- ford, several to Spring Hill to search Murray's Boston Store 'wILL/®ARTIC, CORNN.

For the For the’ defense, Eimer A. Gore and his wife, who was ° Emma Gurley, daughter of the defendant, the defend ant himself, and Judge James A. Shea were called.

The defendant testified that he nevef agreed with his brother as to compen- sation, did not want him in it, and wished he had kept out of the matter. In reply to a question by Attorney Searls, “You got the mone; you?” he answered quickly, seen it yet.” Mrs. Gore was recalled and -testified that Albert E. Gurley told her father and mother the day after the heartng in the probate court he would give them 24 hours to get out of the house.
