| Judge Reed wishes IL announced that
| the civil docket will be called Saturday
! fhe forenoon was spent in the trial Of
| State vs. w G.. Beebe. In the afternoon,
| however, the injunction of Lynch vs. card
ner and Bevis demanded the attention of
/ the court and the former case was con
. timed until today, the evidence not yet
| being completed.
The injunction suit took mp the whole OF
| the afternoon. and even AT the adjourn
ment Of court for the night, the evidence
was not all in. The defendants seemed u
be relying upon tie receipt for the first
months rent which was delivered To them
| by Mr.. Lynch. The plaintiff endeavored
| to show that the firm of Gardener n Bevis
was inSolvent The trial throughout was
| OF peculiar interest and seemed too full Of
surprises and unexpected developments.
