COURT OF APPEALS UPHOLDs HIS CON-
TENTION AS TO ITS GENUINENEsS

Brayton Ives has won his suit in the Court of
Appeals against Gilbert 1. Ellis and Robert V. FL
vey, Chief Judge Parker writing the opinion Of the
court. The action brought May %. 1885,
to recover 81 81 s. for breach of warranty the
sale by defendants, booksellers doing business in
London, TO the plaintiff of document warranted
to be printed copy in Spanish of the letter Of
Columbus to Luis de SAINT Angel. in which Column
bus describes his first voyage to the New World
Prior to the alleged discovery of the letter the
only known copy of the edition printed in Spanish
was in the Ambrosian Library Milan.
Mr.. Ives purchased the letter from Gilbert l.
Ellis on March 90 1890. for $500 after he had been
assured that the document piece of genuine
typography.
Some time later Mr. Ives sought to sell the
Columbus letter, but failed find a purchaser be-
cause prospective buyers doubted its genuineness
After consultation with typographical experts MIR.
Ives, through his attorneys Carter. Hughes &
Dwight, brought suit. He alleged in his complaint
that the letter counterfeit. and was worth
than the price of published fac-smiles
thereof, 8 80.
The action came to trial before Justice Leventritt
and jury on February 20, 1893. and resulted in a
verdict for the defendants. The Judgment entered
upon the verdict and an order denying motion
for a new trial affirmed by the Appellate
Division. The plaintiff thereupon appealed to the
Court of Appeals
Judge Alton B. Parker in his opinion sustained
the contention of the plaintiffs counsel. who
argued that the trial court erred in admitting
letter written by F. s Ellis to Ellis E. Elvey, an
expert in books which was introduced in evidence
by the defendants This evidelc the court de-
clared. was hearsay and incompetent
Judge Parker supports MIR. Hughes's further con-

letter was genuine. The conversation lasted an
hour. Mr. Ellis II fully prepared. The
plaintiff had had previous notice that he ives
to be exposed to such solicitation The result
Ellis accomplished his Purposa. The evidence OF
the converse ton should be considered in the light
of these facts and probably the jury did SO con-
slider it, but the letter of Mr.. F s. Ellis to the

friends reporters and agents. who came 70 condole
with him on his loss. inquire into the details OF
his Legacy and advise future investment for his
prospective wealth. To them all Mr. Evans re-
peated the same story. which that his uncle'S
immense wealth consisted in personal qualities
rather than personal property. and his estate
amounted to practically nothing Again and again.
