$4,000 brought by f. F. Hanson of Chicago
were served on the Waldo Trust Co. and
Frank K. Wiggin Monday. Mr.. Hanson is
we'll known here as the promoter of or in
tereSted in various corporations, notably
the Dana Sarsaparilia Co., the Skoda Co.,
the Nutriola Co., The Petit Manan Co. and
the Cream Publishing Co. A few years ago
he went to Chicago in the interest of a
patent fire extinguiSher of his invention,
I but his attention has been given of late to
promoting d Nutriola Co., to manufacture
various preparations such as were put on
the market by IA similar company in Belfast.
Naturally there have been many enquiries
received by citizens of Belfast from persons
in other States who had under considera-
ton investments in the Nutriola Co., and
many came to the Peoples National Bank,
cf which Mr.. F. r. Wiggin was cashier.
To these letters of enquiry MI. Wiggin
made reply without consultation with the
dir ectors of the bank, and one of his letters
forms the basis of the suit, the plaintiff
claiming that his business standing was in
jured by said letter. The matter was not
brought to the attention of the directors of
the Waldo Trust Co., which succeeded the
Peoples National Bank, until a letter was
received from Mr.. Hanson demanding re-
traction and threatening suit unless such
retraction was made. Mr.. Wiggin, who ac-
cepted the full responsibility for the Offend
ing letter, replied but Mr.. Hanson did not
regard his reply as satisfactory and brought
the suit, which has been entered for the
September tenn of court.
