WANTS AN ACCOUNTING.
Women Partners in a Real Estate
Deal Disagree.

An equity suit was yesterday insti-
tuted by Vosburg & Dawson, acting
for Mrs. Elizabeth Maynard, against

erecting house upon It, the agree
ment being that each should share
equally in the profits.
Mrs. Maynard AYERS that Mrs. Staples
has been collecting the revenues and
refuses to divide. She prays court to
compel an accounting.
