Mrs. Smith, makes denial, claiming
that the agreement manifested In the
signed lease was in reality and In
truth the one and the only one made
with Mrs. Crovatt. The defendant
denies positively any insinuatIon of
fraud or "flim fam" and demands that
the court compel the plaintiff TO live
up to the contract made.
Such an issue naturally produced an
interesting case. Messrs. Johnson &
Krauss represented the plaintiff, Mrs.
Crovatt, and Judge Symmes, the de-
fendant, Mrs. Smith.
There was fiat contradiction in much
of the testimony. The only witness,
outside of the parties interested, was
Mrs. Day. who testified that Mrs.
Crovatt told her that she was tired of
the Smiths and intended to break the
lease. This testimony, Mrs. Crovatt,
with some feeling, denounced as un-
true, alleging that she had held no
conversation with Mrs. Day in long
period of time.
Argument was made by Messrs.
Johnson & Krauss for the plaintiff,
Mrs. Cr0yatt, who was in the courtroom,
grew very much excited, and audibly
expressed her surprise that God didn't
strike the lawyer dead
The jury had not agreed up to late
hour last night.

Smith occupied the greater part of the
day in the superior court yesterday.
Although at the outset, the ca did
not promise to develop anything of
particular interest, it proved before
the evidence had proceeded TO any ex-
tent that it was one of the most inter-
esting issues ever tried in q Glyuu
county courthouse.
Mrs. CrOyatt is the owner Of the
building at the corner of Newcastle
and Monk streets, occupied partly by
the drug store of her husband, Mr.,
William Crovatt, but largely by the
Acme hotel. This hotel is now under
the management of Mr.. John 4 Smith,
who represents his wife, the defendant
in the present suit.
Mrs. Croyatt alleges that she en-
tered into verbal agreement to lease
the hotel portion of the building to
Mrs. Smith for a period of one year,
the consideration to be $40 per month
rental, and board for herself, her hus-
band and two grandchildren. She
further claims that a contract was
drawn up by Attorney James Calnan
and brought to her for signature.
Before the signature was affixed, how
ever, says Mrs. CrOvatt, Mr.. Smith,
who was present, snatched the docu-
ment from the hands of Mr.. j. w.
Connolly, who was present as a notary
public, and left the room with it..
Shortly afterward he returned, saying
1t was all right, and Mrs. Crovatt and
Mrs. Smith signed the paper.
Mrs. CrOvatt says further that wheD
she came to look into the matter fur
ther she found that the contract she
signed was one entirely different from
the one agreed upon, and which she
was about to sign when Mr.. Smith
took it away. She found, according to
her contention in the case, that this
new contract leased the hotel for ten
years, for $40 per month, but without
any consideration Of board This,
says Mrs. Croyatt, she had never con-
sented to or thought of doing IN

game was worked on her, and that she
vas deceived iuto signing one agree

another. She therefore asks the court
10 cancel tbs alleged fraudulent lease
and restore her property 10 her.
