plant against them In q suit to re-
cover certain fees claimed to be due

owing the attorney anything. and fur
ther goes on TO relate that the young
lawyer had been treated In very
charitable" manner.
According to the answer Hollings"
worth called upon Simon Bamberger
about July /, 1905, and asked that
he be given the position of assistant
counsel for the Salt Lake and Ogden
Railroad company He is claimed TO
have asked no pay for his legal ser
vices, other than what Mr.. Bamber-
ger saw fit to give him, and wanted
the position more for the prestige
that 1t would give him than for the
monetary consideration. On these
conditions he was employed and was
furnished with one-half OF an office
room In this city, the rent of which
was considered by Bamberger as
part OF the attorneys remuneration.
He was also granted a salary OF SIS
per month and an additional $40 per
dny for all time spent in court In the
railroads cases.
March 30, 1909. Hollingsworth was
discharged by the company, says the
answer, and he had not been In court
