The case of John L. Cullum against
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, which
was removed from this county, was finish
ed in the Elkton Court on Friday by the
Jury awarding a verdict of $4,000 in
favor of the plaintiff. 1t was suit to
recover $4,000 for damages by being
thrown from the steps of a train starting
before the plaintiff had chance to alight.
The accident occurred at Bradshaw. MIR.
John S. Young was counsel for the plain
tiff.
Considerable excitement was caused
on Saturday evening by the finding of
quantity of powder and fuse underneath
the warehouse of the Henry Reckord
Manufacturing Company, in Bel Air,
near the railroad station. The explosive
was discovered by some boys who were
playing ball near the building. 1t was
coarse giant powder and with it was
a piece of fuse about thirty feet long.
Whether placed there by accident or de-
sign is of course matter of conjecture,
but the Mcssrs. Reckord prefer to accept
the former theory as they can hardly be-
lieve that our community contains per-
sons who are base enough to attempt to
perpetrate such crime.
