AN AMENDED
COMPLAINT

An amended complaint was filed in
the superior court today by J. H. Ed
wards against w, r. Clemens, who 1T
is claimed misrepresented facts to the
former so that he was loser of some
$4,000 by it. Edwards swore in his
complaint that last year Clemens APP
preached him as an agent wishing to
purchase his jack which was worth
about $25O0 He alleged that the de-
PENDANT spoke for Major Ferris. j. M.
Lamb and George Lamb, all of whom
were supposed to be worth over $780,
600. This led the plaintiff to pace
confidence in the agent and he forth
with drew up the sale whereby the
three men were to become owners of
this valuable jack. 1t later became
evident that none of sthe purchasers,
who had given note for the amount
were capable of meeting it, but when
Clemens turned over his commission,
amounting to $500, before the note
which was paid was called for, the sale
was rescinded and the jack reverted to
it's original owner.
AS the plaintiff was unable to use
the jack through the season he thinks
that he should be allowed $500 dam
ages for this, also that he should have
returned the $3.50 which he paid out
in legal forms, tetc. He also claims
that the note by which he paid Glenn
ems has been called in, thereby causing
him an additional loss of $500.
