Following close upon the reversal
OF one Of Justice John Crutchfield' i

ton of a jury in Hastings Court No. /
that the building was not unsafe.
Building Inspector Beck's strenuously
given testimony to the contrary, not
withstanding.
incidentally. even had the jury
brought ia verdict of guilty, the YER
dict might have been set aside by
Judge Witt on a technical point raised
by Mr.. Parrish following his cross ex-
animation Of Mr.. Book.
The decision ends triangular war
OF long standing, In which Justice
Crutchiield and Inspector Beck com
btned their forces against Mr.. Par
rish. The latter was arrested and
given ten days In which to tear down
the building. Instead he had the
structure treated to coat Of white
wash and stood pat. He was arrested
again and fined $40, Justice Crutch-
field adding, the pleasing information
that he intended TO fine him $40 for
every day he left the building stand
ing.
Mr. Parrish appealed. 1t was a case
OF Parrish VS.. Beck, and these two
fought 1t out before Judge Witt. TIE
former won by placing many witnesses
on the stand, all testifying that they
regarded the stable as being SO staunch
tnat 1t would take several strong dou-
BILE horse teams to tear II down.
