Fitxhenry Loses His claim for SALARY
Cases on Trial.
Judge Shaw rendered decision yes
terday in the Fitzhenry insolvency
proceedings.
In his opinion the court states: "The
principal contest in regard to the elect
ion of the assignee, arises over the
claim of j. H. Blanchard. This claim
accrued in favor OF F. G. Fitzhenry, who
claims salary for TWO years, as business
manager"
Ii this witness (Fitzhenry) has kept
correct books as manager, and has testi-
fed truly, as witness. instead OF $22,'
02l being due him, he owes the insolv-
ent estate $l422 81, after paying his own
claim.
The claim is therefore disallowed.

furnished them with food bys seine fish
