MISS MESSLER
WANTS $4,000
SATISFACTION

Matte c. Messler OF Pawtucket has sued
John t. Brady To recover $1,000 for ma
iciOus prosecution.
The defendant a few years ago began
suit against her. but the supreme court
decided he had no case.
Mr.. Brady sought 10 recover $1,000
claiming that Mrs. Messler told him tina
street, and III he, Brady, would advance
NWO and ask no questions he would get
a big return. Mr.. Brady put I'm the money
but got neither dividends nor any part
OF the principal back.
A jury found Brady entitled to his
money back from Mrs. Messler, but this
verdict was overruled by the supreme
court.

as he has paid Mrs. Messler he claims,
already too much. considering a total fail
ure OF returns.
