Before enc of the branches OF the
Supreme Court a case was heard the
other day. which involved the rather
puzzling question whether a man could
steal his own ideas or TO express IL
more clearly, whether a writer could
plagiarize his own works. The writer
charged with having plagiarized him
self, was James Halleck Reid, the WELL
known playwright. The complainant
in the case was Mrs. Albert Andrus,
better known under her stage name,
Agnes Herndon. II appeared from the
evidence that some time in 1889, when
Mr.. Reid was at the beginning OF his
career, he turned over four plays writ
ten by him TO the actress who agreed
TO pay him $500 for the lot. Mr.. Reid
claims that he never received a single
cent Of that money. In 1907 Mr.. Reid
wrote a play, which in some respects
resembled one Of the plays he had
sold to Miss Harndon. The &c.
tress, alleging plagiarism. sued MIR.
Reid for the royalties he had derived
from the play. The technical defense
was that the plays which he turned
over to Miss Herndon were not COPY
righted and that for that reason he
was unable legally to make a valid sale
of their complete rights.
