VAN DYKE ESTATE WINS
Suit for Heavy Damages Against
Grand Trunk Railroad

Montpelier, Oct. 1.-THE masters
in the celebrated case of George Van
Dyke VS.. the Grand Trunk Railway
company have filed with the attorneys
on both sides of the case draft of
their findings. They found for the
plaintiff to recover but the amount is
not made public.
This has been one of the most
widely known cases and involving one
of the largest amounts of any ever
docketed in the Vermont courts. 1t
was entered in Caledonia county court
in December 1904, and was set for tri-
al at that term before Judge James NJ.
Tyler. Because of its importance and
the four weeks or more it was thought
it would take TO try it In county court,
by consent of counsel on both sides
Judge Tyler referred it to f. S. Plat
of Rutland, Horace f. Graham OF
Craftsbury and William II. Taylor OF
Hardwick as special masters. Mr. Van
Dyke who was killed few weeks ago
in an automobile accident, sued the
Grand Trunk Railway company for
approximately 9fVV,OuU dlleBlHB THAT
fires set by locomotives of the defen-
dant company burned over an inn
mense tract of land owned by him in
Essex county.
The masters began taking testi-
mony in this case in February, 1905,
and from time to time held hearings
at Bloomfield and Island Pond until
July. 1908, when the arguments in the
case were made before the masters at
Woodstock. At the various hearings
in the case about 1000 pages of testi-
mcny were taken. The findings of
the masters will probably be reported
to the next December term of Gale
donia county court where the case
was originally entered and it is quite
probable the supreme court will be
called upon for final action in the
case.

NORTH nth ST. TREMBLES

It is believed that the same mys-
FERROUS individual who so frightened
residents of South Seventh street
about two weeks ago, is operating in
the north end of the city at present.
Last evening several persons were
badly frightened on North Eleventh
street by the appearance of an i'll look
ing creature whose sole purpose
seemed to consist in standing in dark
places behind trees along the side
walk apparently oblivious to the ex-
citement he was creating among resi-
dents in that vicinity.
He cannot exactly be called a Jack
the pepper" but in the fear that he
might be Jack the Hugger" women
who were compelled to use that street
last evening gave him a wide range
The police have been notified Of the
mans peculiar actions and it is proba
BILE that the stranger will make him
self scarce in the future. Richmond
has been unusually free from this type
of individual for many months and the
police will not tolerate this kind OF
practice they say.

more with each year and II business
continues to increase in the future as
it has in the past, the capacity of the
institution will have to be increased.
Although the business has been
very heavy and the attendants cOnse-
quently kept busy all the time, the
institution has not at any period ever
operated to it's total capacity.
In discussing the work of this sum
mer, the informant said that not only
were the people of this city patron
izing the institution but that a mum
Der from the surrounding towns were
also treated there. However the in
stitution continues to draw its CHIEF
support from Richmond.
The work has been general with
the exception of the treatment of con
tagion, which is refused.
