Whitehead Must
 Pay $I,240.27
Judge Burpee Finds Against Airship Builder In Suit Brought By Lee s. Bur ridge.

Gustave Whitehead, the local inven- tor who has experimented a great deal in building airships, must pay $l,240.H to Lee S. Burridge of New York, according to a decision handed down today by Judge Burpee of the superior court. Burridge claimed Whitehead failed to complete a motor as he agreed and therefore bound himself to pay $1.250.
 1t was alleged that in July, 1910, Burridge loaned whitehead $1 ,000 while the inventor was working on the mo- tor. Later he loaned Whitehead $250 with the understanding that White head could keep the 1.250 if the motor was completed i'm three weeks, but if the motor was not complete and ready for use in that time Whitehead must pay the entire amount. Burridge says the inventor did not complete the mo- tor. He asked for $1 800 damages. :;
