A number of defendants gave reasons
why they thought they should not be

many ladies. a H , re-.
Dr.. Colwi'l is a young man of 2S or
~. graduate Of a Toronto medical
and surgery college. and had practiced
his profession in Canada before coming
to Bel6eld. where he was in the main
phenominally successful, especially in
surgery. Mr.. Donker is q young man of
about the same ag. and a comparat i've
stranger in this country at the time of
his accident. the results Of which,
from whatever cause, Gil all with pity.
The discussion of the case in court
can but tend to make both physician
and patient more careful in the future.
The case went to the jury at 80 Tues
day and after being out nearly "a hours
the jurors, on New Years day. agreed on
verdict of Sc. 900 in favor of plaintiff.
The jurors stood 10 to in favor of
plaintiff on the first ballot it is UNDER
stood.
Judge Crawford has granted a stay
of proceedings of so days to enable the
attorneys for defendant to prepare
motion for appeal. Judgment, however.
was entered Thursday.
The attorneys for the plaintiff say
that they tried the case very carefully
and they do not see where the defend
ant has any good ground for appeal.
An effort was made by the plaintiffs
attorneys during the trial to show that
Dr.. Colwill carried liability insuran ce
to protect him in damage suits of this
kind. A GREAT many physicians carry
this kind Of insurance.
The jurors in the Colwill case were =:
Fred Pound. foreman, Fred Maser, O.
Schwartz. D. E. Shipley. VIM. Barthel,
W. T. Nickel. John Friend, Gilbert
Lunde, J. NJ. Carroll, Anton Koffler and
r. L. Kessler. c. H. Silvernail was
excused. by consent of both sides, on
account of sickness.
The Colwill case occupied three days
and at the conclusion Tuesday after
noon the E. A Lillibridge vs.. A. W.
Ellickson case was moved and
the jury selected that night before ad-
journment to Thursday. 1t was an
action to recover $1,000 damages be-
cause of alleged failure to complete a
contract. Defendant admitted contract
for sale of house and lot in Dickinson
but claimed same was abrogated by
consent Of both parties and that he paid
rent for time in house. etc. C. H.
Stake and w. F. Burnett appeared
for plaintiff and L. A. Simpson for de-
fendant. Late Thursday night the jury
returned verdict in favor of plaintiff
in the sum of $780,.
On Saturday Judge Crawford ad-
journed court until January 28th. which
date he has set for taking up the state 8

to Williston on Saturday to trip two i'm
portant cases which were sent back by
the supreme court. On the 14th he will
convene the Billings county district

Tie teachers meeting held at Craig
last saturday. was well attended by
teachers In the district. and much in.
terest was taken In the discussions.
Very few patrons were IN attendance.
Supt. Tibbles was to discuss the ques.
ton Of Consolidation, but on account
of so few patrons present thought 1t
wise to spend this time discussing
questions Of more Importance to those
present. or course teachers know
what consolidation Is and what good
results have been secured where II
has been tried. Mr.. Voter is the per-
son who needs information on the
subject of better educational oppor.
tunities for his children, hence such
talks made to teachers fail to bring
the desired results. There is no per.
son who should be more interested in
a child than his parents and they
have no more important task than
providing proper and the very best of
