JUDGMEN I RENDERED

Justice of the Peace johnson OF

decision in favor OF X. NJ. Johnson

contended for and sustained the at
tachment against the press In yes
terday's review OF the case IL was stat
ed that Higgins brought In two or
three receipted bills which johnson
had not credited on the books The
review failed to state. however that ii
was shown by the evidence that John.
son had made deposits amounting over
$50 in one of the banks which he had
failed to note in the books. which was
that much against him and in Higgins
favor, thus. while he had omitted to
put down collections. he had more
than made it up in not putting down
what he had paid out on Higgins ac-
count. or rather deposited. Therefore.
after deducting all that Higgins claim
ed. the justice was able to render
judgment for the entire sum asked
for, and had more been asked the
judgment would have been larger.
