INTERESTING CASE The other day there
closed hard-tought battle in the Orange
County Court. The nature of it was an ac-
ton brought by one Melendy to recover
SEQ, coo for damages received while driving
on the highway Of the town OF Bradford.
This was the third time the ease had been
tried Twice before the jury had disagreed;
this time they gave the plaintiff s. 900. On
the morning Of May 5, 1873, Mr.. Melendy,
while driving along, at smart jog, was
thrown cut by reason ola collision between
his wagon and a stump which had fallen
from bank into the road. He claimed
| that the accident had resulted in perms-
nent paralysis and a complete destruction
| of the nerves of his lower extremities. For
the FIVE wears since the accident, it is claim
ed that he has not moved a muscle OF his
legs, and that they are a. completely dead
and lost to him as if cut off. The plaintiff
was rolled into court in a chair. and ap-
reared as well and bright. barring the con-
dition of his legs, a. anyone IN the room
| The real contest in the case was as to his
condition, the defendant claiming that the
| plaintiff was shamming. One hundred and
| twenty witnesses were examined, occupying,
with the speeches of the counsel, eleven
days. Among them were some OF the most
noted medical experts in the State and New
Hampshire. The defendant had submitted
himself to almost every kind Of experiment.
Needles had been stuck into his legs cuts
had been made and ammonia applied, and
he had beer placed under the influence 81
| ether, but still not a muscle contracted or
a vince was drawn to show that the man
felt pain. The counsel for the plaintiff pro-
posed that he should be tested in court,
but, owing to the impossibiity OF an agree
ment as to how the experiment should be
conducted. this part of the programme was
postponed. As in other important cases,
the experts differed those for the plaintiff
swearing as positive that the parts were
paralyzed, as do the experts for the defence
that such was an impossibility, and that II
was simple case OF attempted fraud. |;
seems almost incredible that man could
have the nerve sufficient to Withstand the
experiments made upon him by the physl-
clans in the interest Of the town, the defen'
dant. Notwithstanding the jury had failed
to agree in the two former trials, they were
in court with their decision 10 less than an
hour after it had been submitted. But the
end is not yet, for the defendants counse
gave notice OF an appeal.

which took place at the residence of his
dau ghter, Mrs. A. B. Robinson, in Muir,
Iowa, a few DAYS since. Mr.. Hall had been
in good health, and the evening before his
death he seemed to be especially free from
either physical or mental trouble lie was
found the next morning, dead in his bed,
apparently having passed away without
pain or struggle, in his sleep. 1t is thought
the cause of death was heart disease.
The funeral took place at Muir, on the
following Sunday. Rev. Mr.. Ellis, of the
Disciples church. of that village. preaching
the sermon, and the ceremonies being under
charge of the Masonic order. very large
number were present. including many
friends from lonia, to pay their last respects
to his memory.
Mr.. Hall was born in Shelburn, March
18th. 1872. and resided there until the
wear 1868, being often called to places oil
trust and responsibility by his iello"-cit'-
zsps. having been for several years one oil
the selectmen, twice chosen to represent
the town in the Legislature, and holding
lin 1915 the Office of Associate Judge Tor
Cbittenden county. In 1868 he removed to
Spring Lake, Ottawa county. Iowa, pur-
chased piece of land on the bank oil the
lake that give, that town its name, and en-
gagged extensively in fruit culture, meeting
with good success until the severe Winter
of ls74-5 destroyed his orchards.
Mr.. Hall was of 4 generous and kindly
disposition, of quiet habits and genial
| tastes-trsits that made him an entertain
| ing con- panion and valued friend lie VIII
be kindly remembered by many OF his old
friend, and acquaintances in Vermont
