HUSBANDS MISHAP
 CAUSES WIFE 10
 ASK FOR DAMAGES

Suit for $25.0O0 has been instituted in the Superior court by Oscar Blanch- ard of Stamford. against the New Ha- ven railroad. Blanchard with another workman. while employed with the Yale & Towne Go. in Sanford. after loading a freight car. attempted to close the door of the car. Blanchard grasped the clasp and lock to the door. which he claims gave way. pitch ing him to the ground. Part of the car door gave way with the lock. He sustained permanent injuries. among them paralysis of the right leg. His wife Jettie Gull Blanchard. also brings suit against the railroad for $5000.
 Suits of the latter kind are very un- common. Very often when a wife is injured. the husband sues. but where the husband is injured the wife rarely seeks legal redress.
