L. B. Casweu and w. H. Rogers.
of Fort Atkinson, attorneys for Mrs.
Emile Bursinger, have filed petition
in the circuit court for an order direct
ing Assignee W. H. Woodland, of the
A. Fuermann Brewing company, to
pay to Mrs. Bursinger the 20 per
cent. dividend, recently declared to
creditors of the company, on her
Judgment of about $13, 900 against the
company. The reason the claim in
question was not duly considered by
the assignee, it is alleged, is because it
was not properly filed with the court.
The case will probably be argued at
the September term of court, Harlow
Pease appearing for the assignee.
