cases nearer home:
"A case Of interest to railway ohtGll'S

John Sherwis a Russian, against the Hu-
nols Central railroad. SherWis claimed
that on October D. 1888 while employed by
that road as u labOrer at DreNel station. ne
was struck by switch engine ana severely
injured He alleged that by the accident
one of his eyes was destroyed. Inc com

Judge TuthilI. SherWis sW0re that after
being injured by the switch engine oI the
Illinois Central he was unable to DO any

brother Andrew SherWiS, and by one Johh

that after leaving its service John HherWiS

love was strong in AIr, Jones, he wrote
Mrs NanLaudingham That the reunion

and there IS happiness In Mr.. Jones's home.
So the father now man Of maJurcd
