/ Judge Chester W. Barrows, at the: open- ing of the superior Thursday, charged the Jury in the two cases of Baim tiste Bottonelll, now of New. London. against the Westerly Automatic Tele- phone company. Both actions were re- sults of injuries caused by contact with o telephone wire lying on the ground, the Post road, where it had fallen onto tre electric light wire and charged with electricity. Judge Barrows reviewed she testimony and explained the law ve thereto. He told the jury there ‘were two cases and that they must rn_two ver- dicts. One case was brought by Mr. Bot- tonelll, for himself, to recover for the loss of service of his wife and the expense in- cidental thereto, she ha) been injur- ed by the charged wire. The court re- minded the jury that the injuries Mrs. Bottonelll recelvéd were not to be con- sidered, as she had Ler day in court. some time ago, but only the loss to Mr. Bottonelli by reason of the injuries re- celved. The other case was brought by Mr. Bottonelll in behalf of his daughter. who had begn injured by contact with the live telephone. wire. He impressed the jury, that in order to find for the de- fendants, they must be satisfied that there was negligence on the part of defendant and none on the part of the' plaintiff. The jury was out for an hour and twenty minutes and returned with a ver- dict for the plaintiffs. Their verdict was $2,000 for Mr. Bottonelli and $1,500 for Miss Alice Bottonelll. The jurors were then discharged and pald off by . the cerk. The next cnses called for trial and which will end the pr.svent session of the court in Westerly, werc the two cascs of Joseph Dussault against Courtiand B, Bliven, and are somewhat similar to thé Bottonellf cases. May 20, last, Louis Dus- sault, son of the plaintiff, was playing with a kite, near hia honie on the Watch Hill road. It is alleged that the boy who was nine years of age, was on the trolley track, and stepped backwards into ‘the highway ,when he was struck by an auto- mobile of the defendant and operated by an employe namecd .Fraser. As a result one of the boy's legs were broken and he was treated for seven weeks in St.Jo- seph’s hospital, Providence. The plain- tHf secks 05 recover .damages for in- jurles sustained. The other™ case is brought Mr. Dussanlt to recover for monies paid out and for the loss of ser- vice of his wife wha g of seven weeks in Providence at much ex- pense.
