The first case was Abraham Rich Of
Farmingdale VS.. AlVGh II. Hayes, ad-
ministrator of the estates of James e.
Dingley and Fuller Dingley, late OF
Gardiner and members of the firm of
Dingley Brothers. In December, 1894,
in the course of business, the plaintiff,
Captain Rich, gave q note for $4,000 to
the Dingley Brothers, securing the
same by a real estate mortgage. The
consideration was demand note given
by the Dingleys to Rich, on which
there are several endorsements. They
had part of the money called for IN
the note from the Dingleys as per those
endorsements. In 1897, both of the
Dirgleys died, and the administrator
Mr. Hayes, has sued for enforcement of
the mortgage given to them by Cap
tain Rich. In turn, Captain Rich sues
for full satisfaction on the note he
holds from them. The suit was begun
in April. 1900. Williamson e Burleigh
for Rich; Heselton & Heath for the
Dingley estate. The defense is a gem
bad tangle and whether anybody will
satisfactorily straighten it out seems
doubtful. There are four other cases
between the same parties and involv-
ing allied business transactions, but it
is expected that none of them will be
heard at this term Of court.
The evidence occupied all day. 1t
took in many, and probably nearly all,
of the transactions between Abraham
Rich and the Dingley Brothers for 4
term of years. Long accounts were in
troduced by both sides, and several
more notes given at various times for
different causes were brought in to
show how affairs progressed. The
plaintiffs evidence was in before din
ner. The defense got through with
testimony at 4.45 o'clock p NJ, and was
followed by the rcbuttal. Bookkeepers,
principals, relatives and bystandcrs
gave in their testimony The argu-
ments will be made, this morning.
