brought in verdict of guilty against

brought in a verdict Of guilty against
Nelson.
Wednesday the case of Heyrock VS..
Mckenzie. This was suit for the re-
covery Of the balance of a threshing bill. |
There was disagreement as to the con-
tract price. and the defence claimed the
payment of $40 for which receipt was
placed in evidence, also that the plaintiff
had agreed to thresh another place and
by failing to do so the defendant was
damaged, as that grain was not threshed
that fall. The plaintiff claimed that the
receipt for $40 had been changed in date
from 1887 to 1891; that the receipt was
given for threshing in 1887 and not for
1891 the time sued for; that he had not
agreed to thresh both farms. Mr.. Bryn-
jolfson appeared for Mr.. Heyrock and
Mr.. Garrett for Mr.. Mckenzie. Perhaps
the one thing most positively proven in
this case was. that the present loose and
careless verbal form of contracting for
threshing is very likely to cause misun-
derstandings, disagreements and law
suits. Every thresher should carry print
ed contracts which should be signed by
both parties before threshing is COM
menced. The jury went out about five
o'clock and during the evening brought
in sealed verdict which was opened at
nine o'clock Thursday morning, and was
in favor of Heyrock for amount claimed.
Thursday morning the case of ]. Brad
shaw VS.. T. F. Kelley was heard. This
was case of the sale of a horse which
afterward was found to have the CHAMBERS.
Verdict for plaintiff for amount claimed.
How long the present term of court
will last is yet hard to say. 1t is quite
probable that the jury cases will run
over into next week and ifthe court cases
are heard it will be Saturday at least be-
fore adjournment. 1t is possible that
there may be an adjourned term to hear
court cases.
