TWENTY YEARS FOR SIG.
James Riggs Seeks Payment for His Work
From Estate of His Father.

James Riggs has made a rather pc
culiar claim against the estate of John
Riggs in the County Court and he de-
mands payment for working on the
farm of his father for period of
twenty years. He claims that during
the twenty years he worked on the
farm he received from his father the
magnificent sum of nineteen dollars,
an average of ninety cents a year.
This is probably the record for low
wages, and especially when it is con-
sidered that most of the time the work
was being done the claimant was a
married man and supporting a family.
John Riggs died in Salem short
time ago and left an estate valued at
$4,000. The son James is not very
exorbitant in his demands for wages
and has filed claim with the court
for $3.50 for the entire amount due'him.
The claim will probably be allowed.
