at the state department, was taken to
the White House by Secretary Seward
and his son.
They found the President alone in

spread out before him on the table.
Lincoln took his pen and dipped it
into the ink, and then, holding it over
the paper, seemed to hesitate. Il

TO be sued because a woman
chanced to be injured while riding
in his auto when the machine was
hit by cut OF freigt cars at Gallon
last summer, is the unpleasant ex-
perience of Bert D. Weaver. proprie-
tor Of the Mission Bowling alleys on
North Main street An unusual rea-
ture Of the case Is the fact that the
injured woman's husband Is bringing
the suit after his wife had collected
$500 in damages from the railroad
company for the injury she sustained.
There's nothing TO IT," Weaver
stated this morning. "They think
that l will he easy enough to turn
over the money to them, guess

tends, precludes him from recovering
damages elsewhere"
