son, Harley Ferrill, and wife and son, and
sister, Mrs. Judson M. Quimby of Little

suit was brought against H. A. Hard
ing last week by parties who had endorsed
note enabling him to raise certain sum
claimed that Mr.. Harding had obtained
their signatures to second note which he
stated was to be used in obtaining money
with which to take up the note at the Hyde
Park bank. Fifteen hundred dollars was
sent to be applied on this note and the
remainder was used for other purposes.
Since this action was brought various re-
hau L1 %
| Mr.. Harding. The transaction was made
as reported but the money received above
the fifteen hundred dollars was used in pay
ing another note and some freight bills
which were due just at that time. Mr..
Harding had just signed note with the
Creamery Package Company from which
he was expecting to receive in few days
sufficient money to pay the Hyde Park
note. However this deal fell through and
the other note was obliged to stand. Mr..
Harding later paid part of it leaving
about 5000 unpaid. While it is possible he
may be legally held for fraud from the
transaction as shown there was evidently
Harding. Had the fire not occurred the
affair wonld have been settled satisfactorily
to all. We understand that the note is to
be settled and the matter dropped.
