James MalOney This is one of the eases
where one of the extraordinary contracts
drawn up by sewing machine companies had
been signed by the wife of the complaining
witness without his knowledge. The contract
called for monthly payments which were not
met, and the sewing machine was seized by
the agents. The court said there had been a
great deal of rasc3lity and swinding carried
on under these printed contracts: but there
appeared to be no law to meet the case. The
statutes were defective in this particular. and
some law should be passed to punish these
agents. Under the circumstances, there was
no larceny in the case, and the defendants
were dismissed. Adam Brooks. larceny of a
buShel of a corn; 80. James Compton. lar
ceny of a coat, pants and other articles of

ditiOn of the animal. which had sores on its

was nearly starved to death. John Walker,
another colored man. was the owner. and let
Payne drive it. 1t fell down under the weight
of its burden, and Mr. Gatchcll caused it to
be killed to put il out of the misery. Walker
plead poverty as the cause for not feeding il.
