Little Gill Explains That Young Lady
Is "Her Papa's New Step
Wife"

Il Is said to have happened IN a
southern hotel. where those who seek
perpetual spring spend the winter. The
usual number of idlS and curious old
ladies sat upon the great veranda, dis
cussing everybody but themselves, and
attention was suddenly attracted by a
handsome couple that passed through
the hotel corridor. followed by little
girl. who, small as she was, appeared
TO be too old to be the daughter OF
the lady in the case. The handsome
couple entered a motor car. and. Wav-
ing an affectionate goodby to the little
girl. sped out of the hotel GROUNDS
with a loud whirr and disappeared up
the distant roadway. The little girl
watched them until they were quite
out of sight, and then turning around
she sought out q chair not far from
the group Of gossips. It was not long
before her loneliness was noted by
one OF the ladies', who called out .
pleasant greeting.

before, my little girl" she said. with
q gracious smile.

tiff is the finder, discoverer or owner
or entitled to the possession of the
money and denies that he agreed to
keep the money for the plaintiff. For
affirmative defense he states that
prior to the alleged finding one Tom
Ellis was the owner and in the actual
possession of the mony in dispute,
land for the purpose of safekeeping
and preserving the same, deposited
and concealed the same in the ware
house Of this defendant at Rainier,
Oregon, to which warehouse no one
other than said Tom Ellis and this
defendant had access. That q short
time prior to May IA, 1907, the said
Tom Ellis departed from Rainier, and
Columbia County, Oregon on a visit
and before doing so appointed and
named this defendant as his agent
and representative to care for and
have the custody and control of all
his property in Columbia County,
Oregon. That during the absence

purpose That during said employ

gold coins and delivered 81 thereof
to defendant That at said time de-
fendant did not know who was the
owner thereof, but, as the owner Of
the warehouse where said coins had
been deposited and left, defendant
retained the said coins for the benefit
of the owner thereof. That thereaf-
ter upon the return of said Tom Ellis
to Rainier defendant discovered and
learned that he, the said Tom Ellis,
was the owner of said coins and de-
fendant paid and delivered the same
to said Tom Ellis, who has ever since
retained the same"

the answer AS the result of a Jury
trial there was a verdict and iudg-

claimed, from which Judgment the
defendant appeals.
