UNIQUE CASE IN COURT.
Suit for Damages Involving Scriptural
Preparation Of Meats.


RICHMOND Va. October ga case
that is said to be without a precedent in
American and English law reports was de-
cided in the law and equity court of Rich
mond today.
s Shector, retail meat dealer sued John
J. Gravns a butcher. for 5000 damages.
claiming that Gravins had furnished him
two foreauarters of veal alleged to have
been killed and prepared according TO the
old testament Kosher prOcess-a process
which orthodox Jews insist upon. Shector 5
customers include a number of orthodox
Jews.
The plaintiffs declaration alleged that the
meat furnished by the defendant had not
been prepared according to the kosher
process and when his customers found it
out they refused to buy of him thereafter
one of the unusual features of tbs case
was the use Of two Bibles which to
swear witnesses. Orthodox Jews We're
sworn today on a Jewish Bible printed in
Hebrew and the other witnesses. including
a Freuchman. X. Franc one. a restaurant
keeper. ur \ copy of the King James YER
sion of the Bible. which is commonly used
n American courts.
Another interesting feature of the trial
was the appearance on the stand of a jew
ish rabbi who is unacquainted with the
English language n bright little daughter
of eight wears acted as his interpreter. She
made decided impression on both court
and jury.
Judge Ingram instructed the jury to re-
turn II verd ct for the defendant. on the
ground that The plaintiff had not been
actually damaged. The jury. without NOV
ing from the Jury box. returned a verdict
for the defendant.
