SERVICE ON
Wife BINDS
HUSBAND

The Supreme court, in an opinion hand
ed down today in the case OF Cranston
Print Works VS., John J. Whalen. holds
that the service on the wife of defendant
OF a notice to quit was a sufficient ser
vice of the notice TO bind the husband.
This was an action OF trespass and eject
ment brought to recover a certain tene-
ment held OF the plaintiff from month TO
month.
Notice to quit in due form was served
on the defendants wife upon the prem
ises in his absence. Owing to dese.t in
a previous notice Mrs. Whalen had taken
the notice to the defendants attorney
The defendant moved the court to di-
rect verdict IN his favor. This was de-
MED and the court left to the jury the
question OF service Of notice, saying: "lt
you found in this case that this notice
was delivered 10 the wife in the premises
on the 14th Of August, the presumption
Is that the husband himself received that
notice. Now. that being the presumption.
IL becomes necessary for the defendant
to bring forth sufficient evidence to sltis-
~ your minds that he did not get the
notice"
After verdict for the plaintiff. the de-
fendant moved for a new trial on the
-
evidence and the presiding Judge denied
the motion. Exceptions were taken TO the
refusal to direct n verdict and TO grant a
new trial Chief Justice Douglas writes
the opinion of the court TN the course 81
which he says:
I'VE think that both exceptions must he
overruled They involve the question
whether the service was good either be
cause service OF such a notice is good ser
vice when made upon a wife AT their
domicile I'm the absence OF the husband or
because the jury We're warranted I'm find
ing as an inference from the fact OF SER
vice upon the wife that actual service was
made upon the husband. The statute re-
qu res written notice 10 terminate a let
ting from month to month but does not
prescribe either the form OF the notice nor
any particular mode in which it must be
served. Where the notice Is mailed TO the
tenant or given to his wife or an agent Of
his appointment the usual presumptions
arise that IL has been received by him
The English cases cited by the defend
ant go TO this extent. at least
"Tn Massa chusetts service upon n wife
or servant is held good as a matter OF
law We think the Massachusetts, rule is
reasonable and just. A wife Is by virtue
OF her relationship TO her husband the
keeper OF his house and his agent 10 per-
form such duties relating 10 the domcle
as ere necessary in his absence. Among
these may be reasonably included the re-
ception OF notices relating 10 the tenure

VERDICT
FOR $4,000
aimed

a verdict for the plaintiff for $1,000 in
the case Of Medelise O'Clair VS. The Rhode
Island Suburban Railway company. has
been sustained by the supreme court. De
PENDANTS asked for a new trial on the
grounds that tho verdict was against the
law and the evidence. that the damages
awarded therein were grossly excessive
that the Justice who presided at the trial
erred In his rulings and I'm his charge TO
the jury, and that since the trial evidence
has been newly discovered.

court. As to the verdict. he SAYS. IL was
not against the law and the evidence.
The undsputed fact" saws his honor.
of the collision between two cars con-
trolled by the defendant cast upon It the
burden Of explaining away the implication
OF negligence arising therefrom 10 the
satisfaction OF the jury. The explanation
orered ana did not commend itself TO tho
Judgmetn Of jury and we cannot say that
II was error 10 reject It. The episode Of
the release was too trivial for serious
consideration. The alleged release neither
purpcrted 10 be the release of. the plain-
TIN nor was IL executed by the releasor.
IL was mere nulllty."
II Is held not good practice TO discuss
reasons for increase OF the ad damnum
In tho presence or a jury. but IL is held
only a matter for continuance The new
evidence Is held to be merely cumulative
il is held to have been no error TO ad
NIT the Carlysle Life tables
This language is used by Judge Dubois
In regard to the damages: while the
amount OF the verdict seems large. we
are unable 20 state that it Is grossly ex-
cessive or even excessive We can only
say that the amount OF damages sus-
tanned by the plaintiff under the evidence
was purely question OF fact and entirely
within the province of the fury. and we
find nothing in the case to warrant the
assumption that In their finding the Jury
we're actuated by passion. prejudice or
caprice, or any other improper motive"
