hurst, based his argumnt on more
thar a score of affidavits from resi-
dents in the n%eighborhood of the plant,
who declared that there was so much
noise emanating from it that sleep was
ruined and nerves shattered. He in
sisted that the company was maintain
ing a nuisance that should be sup
pressed.
On the other hand, Charles j. Hardy,
of New York, counsel for the concern,
told the court that every known de-
vice was used to insure a reasonably
noiseless operation of the plant, that
IL represented an investment Of 5000, 900,
that $4,000 was paid out monthly In
wages. and that eighty people found
steady employment there. AS far as

responsible for disturbing the quiet of
