SNOW VS.. ROGERS.
The first case OF the term to be tried was
taken up this morning. This was an ac-
ton brought by John NJ. Snow, of Blue
hill, against c. E. Rogers, an agent for
the Wrought Iron Stove Co.
In July last Mr.. Rogers, with a team,
put up at Mr.. Shows hotel in Bluehill,
saying according to plaintiff, that he
wished to make it his headquarters for
month or two while selling stoves in the
vicinity. On the day of his arrival he
induced Mr.. Snow to allow him to set up
one Of his stoves in the kitchen, agreeing,
says the plaintiff, to take it out if it did
not prove satisfactory.
On the following day MIR. Snow paid to
Mr.. Rogers or to Mr.. Francis, his super
intendent, $55. Plaintiff says this was
money advanced to Mr.. Rogers on his
statement that he wished it to pay freight
ON carload of stoves that had arrived
at Ellsworth, and was not payment or
the stove.
The stove did not prove satisfactory,
says the plaintiff, and after repeatedly
asking Mr.. Rogers to take it out, it was
finally taken out though left at the house,
and the old range put back, but Mr.. Snow
further account for board for the few days
Mr.. Rogers stopped with him. On the
first two days he accepted script which he
understood would be redeemed at its face
value by Mr.. Rogers at final settlement.
He noted only the figures on the script, and
did not read the fine print. He did not
understand that it was redeemable only as
part payment on a stove.
The defense claimed that the $50 was
paid after the stove had been ia use
week, and that the plaintiff made the re-
mark that the stove was all right, and he
might rs we'll pay for it now. The claim |
that the stove was not satisfactory was
not made until later.
The case will 60 to. the jury this after
noon. Ia "a |
