Wausau pilot. [volume] (Wausau, Wis.) 1896-1940, 1907-01-15
BIG SUIT.

Atty. c. b. Bird departed Sunday
eveningfor Grand Rapids, to be present
at the opening of circuit court in that
city yesterday morning. He will repre-
sent the firm of Kreutzer, Bird &
Rosenberg, associated with E. M.
Hyzer, of Milwaukee in the prosecution
OF one of the most, if not the most, i'm
portant suits ever brought in Wisconsin,
considering the amount of money in
volved.
The PILOT has given history of the
case at other times and we will only
briefly refer to it in this issue. The suit
was brought by F. ii. Johnson, of
Rhinelander, against the Marshfeld
Land and Lumber Co and the Upham
Mfg. Co to compel specific fulfllment
of contract on an option alleged to have
been held by the complainant on lands
situated in Taylor and Lincoln counties,
owned by the defendant companies and
sold to the Copper River Land Co.
while the option was still in force. The
option price was $4,000 and the lands
were sold for SG00,000 The complain
ant claims the lands are worth 81 ,000,-
600 and asks that the lands be given him
at the option price or that the difference
between the option price and his value of
them, which is $500, 900, be paid him. The
case no doubt will not end before it has
reached higher court, no matter
which side gets favorable decision in
the lower court, for there is so much
money involved There are quite a
few witnesses to be examined and no
doubt considerable time will be con-
sumed in the trial of the case.
