sudie Cornett Is Defendant.

Papers have been filed by George
Robertson, attorney, in which the
Medical and Surgical Sanitarium of
Battle Greek, Mich, ask the Circuit
Court to give them Judgment against
Sudie Cornett for 81, ,306. .s3.
In the petition the statements are
made that on Dec. 2, 1894, Sudie Cor
nett, then Mrs. 8. M. EnsIen, entered
the sanitarium. She was operated
upon December 9th of the same year
and remained in the institution until
Sept. 8, 1896. The services rendered
by the plaintiff, including surgical and
medical attention, nursing, board and
all kinds of treatment and expendi-
ture of money made for her amount
ed to $2,119.4O. The defendant later
paid $s12.57 of this amount, which
leaves $1,306.s3 unpaid. The plain
tiff asks. Judgment for same, together
with interest from Sept. 8, 1894, and
the costs attached to the bringing of
suit.
1t seems that in suit for divorce,
prior to the one separating Mr.. and
Mrs. Enslen's provision was made for
the payment of the bill by MIR. EnsleD,
and upon compromise being made
and the suit withdrawn, Mr.. Enslen
failed to pay the bill.
George Robertson is the attorney
for the plaintiff and Edmonston &
Cullen will act for the defendant.
