Sad story of n Speculation

w. S. Dana, as auditor, at Greenfield
yesterday heard the case of William r.
Parker against John Kennedy, both of
Greenfield, which was given to an auditor
by the superior court. The two men have
had business dealings for several years.
Mr.. Parker had loaned considerable money,
in all about $500, it is claimed, to Mr..
Kennedy, and in return he had lived in the
latter's house and had his clothes of Mr..
Kennedy. Mr.. Parker claimed that Mr.
Kennedy owes him about 500, while Mr.
Kennedy claimed the balance was in his
favor to the extent of $500 or $500. No
notes were passed, Mr.. Kennedy keeping
account of the transactions between them
and giving, as he claimed, credit for what
Parker had received of him. 1t was brought
out in the course of the testimony that
Mr.. Kennedy went over into York state
and met some green goods men and then
went to Jersey city, where he received a
package of goods, for which he paid $3.50.
He expected that it contained $4,000 of
'the long green" but upon opening the
bundle he found sawdust and brick. Mr.
Kennedy claimed that the two went into
the speculation on equal shares, which
was denied by Mr. Parker.

The increase in the regular expenses of

ed by the water commissioners in the pre-
parations which have been made for pump
ing at the pond should the water fall to the
top of the pipe, which is probable, although
not necessary yet. The pump and boiler
are in place and ready for use. This does
not fully explain the increase.
The receipts for water rentals for the
