THEY WANT THEIR MONEY.

A okips WIN eIuu, unu
Leaves the Other Fellow to be Sued.
An interesting case is to be tried at
the next term of the Circuit Court, next
April, before Judge Blair.
Some time ago the Salem Improve
ment Company had some building done
near new Hotel Salem, and employed
N. Hickman to do the work.
Mr. Hickman sublet the contract to
Rutherford &c Bosley, and they en-
ployed six carpenters. Mr. Hickman
paid Rutherford money as it was de-
manded, but Rutherford skipped with
about 500 due the six carpenters, and
has never been heard of.
Now the carpenters want their money.
They are L. o. Carroll, d. F. Gibbs, j.
r. Lewis, w. r.. Talley, Robert Foutz
and Sipna Galloway. They have brought
suit against Mr.. hickman for their hun
dred dollars, each sueing for the amount
due him, ranging in sums from five to
thirty dollars. Under the code of '73
man could be made to pay twice for
work done, but under the code of 'S7
Col. r. III. Logan, who represents the
defendants, will maintain that q man
now cannot be twice made to pay debt.
William Simpson, for the plaintiffs,
will maintain that the code ctil pro-
vides that man can pay the same debt
two times.

"A. III. Slaymaker Sues for the Payment
for 200 Maps.
The Baltimore and Ohio Land Com
pany was sued by A. II. Slaymaker yes
terday and the suit tried before 'Souirc
Camper.
The circumstances of the suit are as
follows:
MIR. Slaymaker contracted to furnish
1000 maps to the Baltimore and Ohio
Land Company for $40, in case the
photographic stone used in making pre-
vious copies of the maps could be used
again, but in case it could not be used
again the land company was to add the
price of the new stone to the bill to be
paid Mr.. Slaymaker.
II. Garland Browne, of the Baltimore
and Ohio Land Company, maintained
that the price of thu stone was not to
be included in Mr.. Slaymaker's bill.
1t was shown by the plaintiff that a
bill for full amount had been left with
the company and $40 paid on account.
The new stone having been used, the
price of it was included in the bill,
Rush U. Derr, of Roanoke, repre-
scented the defendant company, and
VIM. M. Montgomery, of Salem, the
plaintiff.
Squire Camper decided in favor of
the plaintiff.
