WON HIS SUIT.
Ira l., uungcrford H. Given n Judgment
Against the Timos-Tribunc Tor

Against the Timos-Tribunc Tor
tho sum Of s3ip.3s.
From Fridays Daily.
The case of Ira l.. llungerford against
the Norfolk Times. Tribune was decided
in County Judge Bates court at Madi.
son yesterday, after having dragged
along for about three months.
The history of the case is more or less
familiar to the people of Norfolk. Mr..
Hungerford was discharged from the
service of the company April l6 and he
at that time started suit for wages due
him and at tho same time retained the
books of the company until the matter
should be settled,
The trial yesterday concluded the af-
fair unless an appeal is taken, which is
not likely.
Hungerford's claim was for S3lO.i3.
which he recited was due HIM on wages.
This was offset by counter claims of
the company, the total amount OF
which was $l,2s2.25, This included
four items, the first of which was $57l,
which the company claimed had been
misappropriated by Hungerford. The
second was $3.50, charged against the
plaintiff for malicious prosecution the
third was $los % for damages sustained
by reason of the retention of the books
and the fourth was an alleged claim
against the Sprague stock which had
come into Mr.. Hungerford's possession,
the amount of which was 1878.
The trial was by jury and the books
were submitted. and every detail gone
over, there being found but one mistake
where the accounts failed to balance by
five cents. The argument was quite
heated and it is said that the attorney
for the defense numerically abused the
plaintiff, both in examination on the
stand and during the argument.
After being out about ten minutes the
jury returned verdict for the plaintiff
allowing him the full amount of his
claim, less five cents, which was award
ed the company Oh it's offset claims, by
reason of the discrepancy in the balance
before referred to.
The company had previously secured
n judgement against Hungerford in JUS
tice Fuller's court for Sl9S but this had
been set aside.
Mr.. Hungerford is naturally much
pleased over the result and is especially
glad to be free from the charge of EN-.
bezzlement preferred against him. Since
this accusation has been made he has
been called all sorts of hard names and
has been compelled to stand it, until
now, that he has bet IL cleared by o jury
of his peers, he feels that he can look
his aquaintances In the eye once more
and reiterate that he is innocent, with
the decision of the jury to back his
stntament.
The many counter charges exhibit the
earnest desire Of the company to make
case against Hungerford, rs they were
evidently made with the hope that at
least one of them would stick and to
have them all turned down and the
plaintiffs one straight proposition win
must be disheartening to the publishers
