The Morse Case.

COrunna, Dec. Attorney Odell
Chapman of Owosso is in Lansing,
where he will again try the damage
case brought against the Grand
Trunk railroad company by Glen
Morse of Corunna a few years ago.
Mr.. Morse's son, about two years
old ran away from his mother and
was killed by train. Morse con-
tends that the engineer had time to
stop his train, but took chance and
did not do 1t. He was given a yer,
dict for nearly $4,000 in this circuit
once and the supreme court revers-
ed the case, because some of the
jurymen had looked over the scene
of the accident.
The company then asked for a
change of venue and the same was
granted, the suit having been trans.
ferred to Ingham county where it
will be tried this week A number
of Corunna citizens are in Lansing
as witnesses in the case. -..--.-..-.

The Elks Memorial Day commit
tee has been fortunate in securing
Shirley Stewart of Port Huron to de-
liver the general eulogy at the an
nual services to be held Sunday af-
ternoon at the Temple.
Mr.. Stewart who Is assistant at
torney of st. Clair county, is one OF
the best known of the younger Elks

istic work.

material assistance in preparing the
team to duplicate the feat which his
own team had performed-procur-
ing the state championship.
The memorial services will be
held in the lodge room of the temple

is a public function. Not only Elks
