4 Horse Trade.

A horse trade made in May last
between Uncle Lew Haggard and
Martin 1. Shaffer, farmer boy liv-
ing in Deepwater township, WAS
finally settled in the circuit court
Saturday night by the jury return
ing a verdict in favor OF the boy and
adiudging damages against Uncle
Lew of one cent In addition to the
one cent damages Uncle Lew will
have to stand the costs OF the suit
which will amount to about SlOO
The suit grew out of the fact that
the horse Uncle Lew traded for was
not the kind of a horse he thought
him to be and consequently was un'
fit to roam at large with other stock
on the waving green pastures. Fo'
this reason Uncle Lew wanted tt
rue, but the boy said, mo, a trade
was a trade" On the refusal OF the
bov to trade back Uncle Lew re
plevied the horse. and the case went
to the Justice court and young Shat
| fer came off victorious. Not being
satisfied with the proceedings Uncl'
Lew appealed to the circuit court
with the above results. There IL
only one moral to the lesson an'
that is if you get tho worst OF
horse trade grin and bear it.
