! what was called Lodge No |. A Committee OF five
| from each section appointed, to make arrange

| The Lodge. They met on some Sunday, and attempt
cd to divide the property but there was some nfor-

The plaintiff was member Of Lodge No II, land
was proved to have been President OF said Lojge)
| and commenced this action against the defendants

| the defendants, who were members of Lodge No. |
The Banner proved to have been IN a closet
| Of the Lodge Room, and that the plaintiff usually
had the key of the same On the part of the plaintiff
II was also shown, that the defendant, Beck, on a
certain occasion had the Banner in his hands in the
LOCge Room and handed to some person or persons
through a window Another Of plaintiffs witnesses
testified that other perSOn-but neither Of the
| deendants-handed it through the window This
! act constituted the alleged conversion.
The Court, on motion of the defendants counsel,
struck ont the names OF all the defendants excepting
Beck, and the action proceeded against him alone
! The Court decided
FIRST: That the general or special property in the
bai.er nv was not en ,ha he piaasG "s only the
agent for the Lodge in having the key OF this closet
and could not MAINTAIN this action IN his own name.
Second Tha. although it was proved on the trial
that the plaintiff was President OF the Lodge No H.
describe him as President, and consequently he
could not maintain the action as President
Third That there is not sufficient evidence Of
conversion by Beck and besides, he being member
Of Lodge No. H. had AS much right TO the posses
SION a. any other member, and an action could not
be sustained against him by stranger.
Ordered judgment for defendant. with costs.
