GUESTS PRESENT.

wedding of Mr.. and Mrs. Sol Will
hermsdorfer was celebrated Monday
at their beautiful country home two
miles south of here. Nearly one hun
dred guests we're present.
Ane elegant three course dinner

of esteem were presented the worthy
couple, John w. McClain and David
B.. Wilson of Fairfield, who were
guests at the wedding fifty years ago,
were present.
Mr.. Wilhermsdorfer was born at
Anspach, Bavaria, Germany, in 1882.
He was taught the business of florist
and was a fine landscape gardener,
but hearing much talk of the great OPP
portunities for a young man in the
United States he determined to see
for himself and in 1852 he crossed the
ocean. He remained in New York six
months after landing, when he went
to Ohio, but the fame of Iowa reached
him there and again he changed his
abiding place and came to Fairfield

ty, in 1885. She came with her par
ents to this state when nine years
old. She and Mr.. Wilhermsdorfer mel
at Fairfield in 1858, were mutually at
tracted, their friendship ripened into
love and they were married the some

Old STOVE Led
TO DAMAGE SUIT
FRED HANCOCK SUED FOR 1895
FOR STRIKING SIMON
WISEMAN IN FACE.
THE DEFENDANT WINS
The Difference Between 80 Cents and
St.oo Causes a Holly Contest
ed Case In Justice Me-
Iick's Court.

The difference between 80 cents
and $1.00 was the cause of a hotly
contested case in Justice G. Is,
Melick's court yesterday and was
made the basis of a claim by Simon
Wiseman, a junk dealer of this city,
for $99.95 damages, all over a stove,
too.
The bone of contention in the case
was in placing a value on an old
stove which could not be agreed upon
between the plaintiff, Simon Wise
man, and the defendant, Fred Han
cock, a farmer residing near Blakes-
burg. The stove causing the trouble
was just a plain old cast iron affair
that did service for a number of years
In the Hancock family until in its de-
clining years it was deemed best to
put 1t out of commission. Herein be-
gins the tale as CLEANED from the
rather contradictory evidence sub
mitted by the opposing parties to the
suit.
S. T. Hancock, father of the de-
PENDANT, it Is claimed, met Wiseman
in Ottumwa and told him that an old
stove could be purchased by Wise
man if he would go out to the Han
cock farm and see what the stove was
worth. He stated that it belonged to
his boy and that Wiseman should
give the boy whatever it was worth.
He gave the directions to the junk
dealer in order that there would be
no difficulty in locating the Hancock
farm.
Early in the month of July Wise
man and a fellow junk dealer went
to the Hancock farm Where they
found S. r. Hancock, the grandson OF
the man who told them of the stove.
The boy is but a chap of about 15
years and is a son of the defendant.
1t was stated that they presented the
slip of paper on which the address
was written and said they came after
the stove, for which they gave the
boy % cents. The lad gathered some
rags and was given a nickel by the
dealer for them. The stove was then
broken up, and, it is claimed, placed
in the wagon for hauling back to
town.
AS Wiseman and his helper were
about to leave the premises they were
met by Fred Hancock, the defendant,
VIM Witil loIloJ WoS SSAAAAh
in the gate on a load of hay. Han
cock shouted to the junk men to wait
until the hay was gotten in through
the gate. Later, jumping down from
the wagon, Hancock approached
Wiseman and asked him what he had
in the wagon. When told it was a
stove, he asked how much had beer
given for it and was told by Wise
man that he had given the boy 90
cents for it. At this Hancock is said
to have stated that the boy shout
have had a dollar for the stove and
in the argument which followed Han
cock struck Wiseman in the side o.
the face below the eye.
The plaintiff, Wiseman, claims thai
he was incapacitated by the effects
of the blow received from Hancocl
and had to have medical treatment
and was otherwise discounted, fol
the payment of which he filed a sui
for damages to the amount of $685.
The case went to the jury about !;
p. m. and after a short time deliber
ating a verdict for the defendant was
found.
