Jones, who for years has brought
polo ponies from Texas and sold them
at Meadowbrook. Some OF these POI
MES played in the international games
in England last summer
The suit was for $780, and was for
furniture which Jones alleges Mrs.
Pierce took from him when she left
his house at Hampstead. after having
leased 1t furnished for the hunting
season of 1907 and zoos. The jury
brought in verdict for Jones for
SIZE.
Mrs. Pierce was In court and was
called first. The plaintiff tried to get
her to read letter which she had
written to him. but she refused. and
said, Read 1t yourself"
Jones testified that he had good fur
niture, that he left 1t in good shape,
and that VIXEN he returned In May,
1905. the house was bare and nothing
In it but rubbish and broken bottles.
He also said he had a barn. which was
locked and not In the lease, which
had been broken open by Mrs. Pierce's
servants and a lot of hay. straw, feed
and wood taken therefrom On cross
examination he cut down his valua-
ton from $500 to 5000 on the articles
He was followed by his caretaker
Samuel V. Wood, who said that he
had seen the articles taken from the
house by moving men, who said they
came from Mrs. Pierce. He saw a mar

drink of water at the time, Asked
how long it took him TO set drink,
he replied: "As / Amt big hog, 1t
only took three minutes"
Brinkerhoff, Mrs. Pierces cook. then
took the stand and said he had heard
Mrs. Pierce say she needed some hay,
and had later seen an employe taking
hay from the barn not in the lease,
Mrs Pierce testified that she had
hired the place from Jones for $3.50
and was compelled TO furnish 1t her
self, as Jones had said he had nothing
there worth anything, and that wher
she had the furniture taken away her
men had taken three pieces of Jones's
by mistake. This she had offered tc
send to him. She denied that she knew
of her servants taking the feed anc
wood, and didn't know the place hac
been broken open. s
