Superior Court.

DECEMBER OWL TERM, 1877, sYMoNDs, j.. PRE-
SIDING.
THURsDAY.-Eias Thomas VS.. Frank Smith ct
ais This action is brought to recover four hundred
dollars as damages for alleged breach on the part
ofdefendant of verbal contract. The plaintiff is
merchant of this city and the defendants merchants
doing business IN Lancaster, N. H.
The plaintiff claims that in June, 1876, he made
contract through his agent with the defendants
whereby they agreed to purchase all the wool they
could within certain territory at fixed price for
commission of cent per pound; that the contract
complete and the defendants drew upon him for
one thousand dollars with which to begin the pur-
chase of the WOOL that thereafter another party hav-
ing offered them larger commission they broke the
contract with plaintiff, returned the thousand dol
lars and purchased wool for other parties and not for
the plaintiff; that he plaintif buying wool
commission of two cents per pound, and therefore
would have made profit Of one cent per pound on
all WOO purchased for him by defendants had they
kept their contract; that the defendants did pur-
chase in fact that season forty thousand pounds.
The defendants deny the contract was as claimed
by Thomas. They say the contract as made be-
tween them and plaintiffs agent was that they were
to have the outside price, high price as anybody
offered, both as price to offer farmers for the wool
and as commission for themselves, and that it was
understood and agreed that if anybody offered them
higher price they were at liberty after reasonable
notice to Thomas TO buy for themselves for other
parties; that higher price was offered, and after
notifying Thomas and his refusing to give any more
they did buy for the other party. Verdict Tor the
defendants
Thomas, Jr., for plaintiff.
Holmss for defendants.
Ida A. Proctor VS.. Gardiner NJ. Parker. Trover
for lot of household goods of the alleged value of
one hundred and seventy-tive dollars. On trial.

gion of the heart being made to the depth of
about quarter of an inch. Thus Morrlps life
was saved by the gallows. The presence of
that buckle was the only thing that prevented
instant death. The policeman's next effort
was to wrench the knife from the hand of the
would-be murderer; and to do this while
he was slashing around in the dark, was no
easy undertaking. He pricked Morril several
times In the back Of the head, cutting to the
scalp, and cutting also his ear and neck.
in fact becoming quite familiar on first ac-
qpaintance. Morrill, sconcnded he must re-
lieve the fellow of that knife. He felt round
and finally got hold of the knife handle, and
by superiority of strength took from him the
knife, dragging the blade through the burglars
hand. 1t must have left its marks. The con-
testants had been upon their feet all the time.
When the burglar lost his knife he stopped ana
attempted to escape, ordering his copferate to
shoot himr' The confederate did shoot; the
ball came crashing through the window, lew
inches above MorIil's bead, but at this time
the burglar got away from Morrill, VINO naa
him by the hair Of the head, leaving a pretty
large lock as a remembrance of his m1dnignt
visit; but after he went through the window
Morrill, followed him with two shots from his
revolver, one of which he thinks took effect.
The fellow then made off and had not been cap
tured at last accounts. The one who had the
tussle with MoIril is a large man, some six
feet tall He was we'll armed and evidently
came TO clear the house, no matter Tho was in
it, BE wore black felt bat of large size,
which he left behind, but his footprints in the
snow showed that he has small foot Be-
sides his hat, and dirk knife, he left behind
him an iion Chilly" and large meal sack in
which he intended, probably, to carry off his
booty. If that man is living now, he carries
his head in sling. The Mayor has promptly
offered reward for the detection and convic-
ton of the thief.
Mr.. Charles c. Morrill,, the brave policeman,
who had this hand-to-hand encounter with a
desperate, fully armed house-breaker. is %
years of age, weighs 1856 pounds, aud is the pic
ture of health. His great courage and full
command of himself on this occasion, has
elicted the praises of all who have heard of the
terrible midnight encounter 1t was ruggle
for dear life, and Morrill, triumphed by the ex-
ercise of deliberate Judgment aud superiority
of muscular ability.
