COMMON A SMOOTH ARTICLE
"A Salary for His Work and Price for
the Product

Edwin F. Sargent's complaint in his suit
against the Fidelity Abstract company re-
cites quite an interesting story.
In 1895 he was preparing to establish
himself in the abstract business and as a
preparatory measure employed force of
men at the courthouse from March until
May, inclusive. In the making of fine set
of abstractor's maps. This force of men
was under the foremanship Of one William
H. Conner, who was under instructions to
use diligence in preventing people in gen.
eral and especially other abstract COM
panies from knowing the plan pursued in
drafting and arranging these maps. But
Conner apparently knew thing or two,
and, according to sargent's allegations,
as fast as he completed the maps he made
blue print duplicates of them. To make a
long story short, he is alleged to have sold
a full set Of these duplicates to the Fidelity
Abstract company.
Mr.. Sargent now sues the company for
$500. the value of the drawings.

WIEsENDANGER's SUIT
Claims Sheriff Aguirre Made Mis-
take and Wants His Money

Away back in 1890 Theodore Wiesendan-
ger sued Dan Mcfarland to recover
S5527 81. AS soon as the suit was filed the
plaintiff alleged in court that Mcfarland
would dispose of what property he had,
and thus defeat any judgment which might
be granted. On this representation Sheriff
Martin Aguirre was instructed to issue an
attachment on McFarland's property, and
accordingly he hunted around and soon
had in his possession team of horses and
carriage belonging to the debtor. NC
Farland, DESTROYS Of getting the team and
vehicle back, offered the sheriff bond for
$1,000 as a consideration for the release OF
the property. Aguirre accepted and an
instrument was drawn and signed by Nc
F'arland as principal and J. F. Towel and
w. G. Hughes as suretes in the sum of
$1,000, and the sheriff released McFarland's
carriage and pair.
Wiesendanger's case was long pend
ing one, but in 1896 he secured judgmen.
against Mcfarland for the amount he
originally sued for and interest, the same
being $SS09.95. An execution was issued
and sent out to find property to satisfy the
Judgment, but it was returned wholly I'M
satisfied. Then Wiesendanger referred to
the instrument which Sheriff Aguirre ac-
copied from Mcfarland eight years ago as
security for the team and carriage, but 10
his surprise and chagrin found it to be so
defective that it's value is utterly destroyed.
Not wholly discouraged, however, he has
now brought suit in the superior cour. 10
establish the intentions of those who were
parties to the instrument. He sets forth
all the circumstances, includes copy of
the usual form of such documents, and
prays judgment against MCFARLAND. the
sureties and ex-Sheriff Agurre for $1,000.
