Suits in New London County Superior Court Against S. Curtis Eggleston and Wife of North Stoning- ton and Byron Billings of New London—Washington County Superior Court Convenes Today. Judge Herbert W. Rathbun, with law office in Westerly, acting for Thomas F. Foran of New London, has brought two _suits returnable to the superior court for New London county on the S:st Tuesday in October, ®nd for the st three days Deputy Sheriff Casey has been busy serving the, papers in the cases, as in -addition to serving notices on town clerks and every sav- ings bank in New London county he has served notices on officers resident in New Haven of the Niantic Menhaden Oil and Guano company, the suits be- ing an outgrowth of the faildre, the affairs being now with Attorney Frank L. McGuire of New London as receiver. The suit is based on a note of $4,000 endorsed by Thomas F, Foran, S. Cur- tis Eggleston and Byron Billings, given to Benjamin L. Armstrong Dec. 1, 1910, as part payment of 70 shares of the company stock, in which Eggleston was an officer. The note has been renewed several times and it was finally col- lected from Wir. Foran, who was the responsible endorser. The suit is in equity and the plaintiff claims the deed of transfer from 8. Curtis Eggleston to his sister, Ida Randall, should be de- clared null and void and the property held to respond to any judgment held on ‘this action. It is also claimed that for the pset two or three years Eggle- ston has transferred bank accounts to his wife to escape the conditions that now exist, and it is gsked that these transactions be set gside. ‘The first sult 48 brought against S. Nellie Egzleston, his ! North Stonington, now of South Lyme, Ida B. Randall, Henry C. Randall and sister of Eggleston. Sheriff Casey attached in this suit four tracts of land in North Stonington, comprising 640 acr which formerly stood in the name of Eggleston, but was transferred to Mrs. Randall, his sister, Nov. 18, 1914. The sheriff also attached $1,400 in the Nor- wich Savinge society bank, $800 in the bank and $250 in the Dime Savings bank, Norwich, which had been transferred by Eggleston to his wife. Also $1,250 in the Savings Bank of New London belonging to Eggleston, The second suit is against Byron Blllings, and real estate in New Lon- don and East Lyme and also his shares of stock in the Niantic Men- haden Oil and Guano company have been attached. In each case Mr. Foran places dam- ages at $1.500, or a third of the respon- sibility for the note which they jointly endorsed to Mr. Armstrong, ard which Mr. Foran was required to pay. Suits are already pending by Ben- jamin L. Armstrong against Eggleston and Billings on other notes that were given by them, and all the shares of Eggleston in the company have been attached. There are over 200 shares of the stock of the company neld in Westerly and vicinity, this section being the field where the stock was floated. The only two outstanding bonds of the company are owned by Westerly men. With Judge Chester W.
