to cross the tracks leading to the freight
house at the west end of the station his
team was struck by the caboose belong
ing to the gravel train and one of the
horses was killed. Kennedy was thrown
from the wagon and received permanent
injuries. He brought suit for $4,000
claiming that the defendant had not used
the proper precautions in protecting him
from danger. The company contested
on the ground that Kennedy had not ex-
ercised the care required of him by law
as he approached the crossing, conse-
quently he was guilty of contributory
negligence. The jury ave verdict in
favor of the plaintiff for $4,000. Hon.
Mahlon Pitney was counsel for Kennedy
and Flavel MCGEE Esq, represented the
company.
The case of G. Frank Axtell against

On Sunday evening last the Baptist
Church was crowded with the interested
and curious as result of the announce
ments of another sermon on the liquor
traffic in Morristown-in the light of
recent events. But most of them were a

Batten protested strongly against the
action of the commissioners in refusing
to revoke the license, saying that in his
judgment they were guilty of commit
ting a heinous sin. The remainder of
the sermon was review of the tests that
would and would not be applied at the
Judgment, with concluding appeal to
men along evangelistic lines. The SER
mon was subject of general discussion
