Schmick Handle & Lumber Co. claim
ed that under the law the claim was
simply a mortgage of a portion OF
what the Wendall F. Brown Co. had
advanced as part payment and that
there hadn't been any delivery of the
lumber to them, also that the condi-
tional sale or mortgage had not been
rendered, consequently it did not con-
vey the title of the property to them.
The case, according to the evidence
put in, hinges on the contract Eight
witnesses were examined and large
amount of letters and documentary
evidence put in. The case was not
completed at the time adjournment
was taken and a subsequent hearing
will take place in the near future. En-
nest A. Anderson of Boston and Geo.
w. Heselton of Gardiner represented
the petitioners in the case, while Will
