Speaking of a decision in case
sent up from Frankfort, the Indi-
annapolis News says:
can abstractor of titles who makes
and certlfies to an abstract for land
owner, with the knowledge that he
intends to use it in borrowing money
from another, giving a mortgage on
the land as security, is liable to the
lender for losses suffered on account
of his negligent failure to make the
abstract complete. Especially is this
true where the lender is personally
assured by the abstractor that the
title is good. The appellate court
so held in the case of Charles l..
Brown against William S. Sims, re-
versing the judgment of the Clinton
Gil cult court. Brown had loaned
$500, by relying on an abstract
furnished by Sims to the borrower
and on the personal assurance given
by Sims that the borrower had a
clear title to the land on which he
gave mortgage as security. Sims
had omitted to mention in the alb
stract lis pendens notice of a suit,
under which the land was taken

with Booker T. Washington as a
"deep thinker among the southern
negroes" affirms that the black race
must endure hardships. awe must
learn," as he puts it, "not to be
ashamed of honest service. If we
must work in mental places, let us
not be ashamed to work in them.

lay brick for a living as It is to prac-
tice law just as honorable to wash
and iron as to get upon the platform
and make speeches for woman suf-
frage."
