/ BANK WAS SHORT 4 CHECK
Glenwood Woman Receivers Money
From Bank Which She Had
invested IN Stock.

p & S &
The suit Of Mrs. Marie Squires VS..
the First National Bank Of Glen
wood was the only jury case in the
district court last week, and it was
completed on Wednesday.
In the fall Of 1907 Mrs. Squires
deposited 81, 558.58 in the First Ma
tional bank, taking as evidence Of
her money a deposit slip, her daugh-
ter, Mrs. John Anderson, acting as
her agent. Mrs. Squires wrote few
checks against her deposit till only
1900 was left. Inquiry was made
as to the rate Of interest paid by the
bank, and Mrs. Squires expressed a
desire to invest the $1,000 in some
thing which would return more than
the four per cent interest paid on
bank deposits.
Peter Peterson, at that time vice
president Of the bank, suggested that
Mrs. Squires could buy preferred
stock in the Glenwood Spring Water
Company, which paid Z per cent divi-
dend. Up to this point the testimony
Of both sides Of the case agreed.
About April %, 1908, Mr.. Peterson
secured 300 shares Of the Glenwood
Spring Water Company preferred
stock with the $1,000. He testified
that he did SO at the request Of Mrs.
Anderson, acting for her mother.
Mrs. Anderson testified that she had
never instructed or requested Mr..
Peterson to do so. Il.
In September, 1908, dividend
checks on the preferred stock were
sent out by the Glenwood Spring
Water Company, and two Of those
checks made payable to Mrs. Squires
and endorsed by her were placed on
exhibit during the trial. No dividends
were paid after that time and in the
fall Of 1910, when it was rumored
that the company was in bad way
financially, Mrs. Squires made a de-
mand on the bank for the 81, 800, the
she had not said anything to the
bank officials about the money o,
any interest money for about two
years and a half. It appeared from
some Of the testimony that Mrs. An.
derson had spoken to both Mr.. Pet
erson and E. A. Johnson, the secre.
tary Of the Glenwood Spring Waite,
Company, in regard to the non pay
ments Of dividends due on the pre-.
ferred stock. The weak link in The
defense was the absence Of checl
against the 1900, the money having
been drawn out without any writer
authority from Mrs. Squires, anc
Mrs. Squires still had the duplicate
deposit slip given her when she first
had her money left at the bank.
The jury was out only short time
and returned a verdict in favor Of
Mrs. Squires for judgment in The
amount Of $1,378, the whole Of The
principal demanded and one years
interest at the legal rate Of 6 pei
cent.
A stay Of proceedings for 60 days
was granted by Judge Flaherty. =

F amous People
Named Christmas

Christmas is an old fashioned Eng
lish family name, especially in Surrey
and Cambridgeshire, and many people
bearing it have achieved fame in one
direction or another.
For instance, there was Gerard
Christmas, the famous carver Of stat
nary, who dourished in the early part
Of the seventeenth century. He de-
signed Aldersgate and carved with his
own hands the richly ornamented por-
tai Of Northumberland House, ia
miliar object to the older generation
Of living Londoners.
His chief energies. however, were
directed toward ornamenting and
identifying the ships of the royal ma
W, and the highly decorative style he
originated was continued right down
to the middle Of the last century.
when iron superseded oak in the con.
struction of battleships.
