Judgment Against DR.. Graw.

Presiding Elder J. B. Graw, of the
Bridgeton district, was mulcted in 1924 in
the Supreme Court before Justice Van
SICKLE at Toms River last week, in suit
brought by ex-Sheriff R. Frank Aumack,
as administrator of the estate of his son
William.
William Aumack carried on lumber
business at Toms River, and DR.. Graw, in
his building operations at Island Heights,
kept a running account with him. In
November, 1898, Dr. Graw's son, Joseph
R. Graw, was building house at Island
Heights for Henry Preston, of Philadel-
phia, and purchased lumber of Aumack.
Graw maintained that Preston ordered the
lumber.
DR. Graw said that he did not give his
son permission to order lumber for Pres
tons house on his account Aumack' s
bookkeeper produced an order written by
Dr. Graw, instructing Aumack to sell his
son, Joseph, any lumber he might want,
and to charge it to his account. Dr. Graw
explained this by saying that he had
written such an order in 1891, when his
son was doing work for him.
The bookkeeper also produced letter
written in 1895, in which DR.. Graw told
Aumack that he would try to have Pres
ton settle the bill for lumber ordered by
my son. Preston swore that young
Graw ordered the lumber.
The Jury gave Aumack verdict for
the full amount above named
