| Suit for $42,239.SO has been filed il
the chancery court of Forrest coun
ty, by DR.. d. M. Gatlin, well-knowr
dentist and real estate operator
against the Hattiesburg Traction Com
pany, for alleged breach of contract
damages suffered as result, and tc
recover a sum paid by DR.. Gatlin to
the company several years ago when
the railway organization was induced
to extend its lines out Pine street.
The Traction Company will answer
the cross bill filed yesterday by DR..
Gatlin, at the coming term of the
chancery court, which opens here next
Monday. 1t is likely that the case
will come up for trial four months
hence.
The suit is of interest to all of Hat
tiesburg, not only on account of the
big sum demanded of the company,
but because it more than likely will
settle, for all time to come, the ques-
tion of having the Hattiesburg Trac-
ton Company operate cars on the line
originally mapped out to cover the
distance to the farm of D. e. McInnis.
In DR.. Gatlin's cross bill, he asks
for $4,000 actual damages received,
he alleges, because the company fail
ed to carry out it's part of the con-
tract and extend its lines further on
Pine street; $4,000 punitive damages,
and for a personal judgment in the
sum Of $2,239.S0 with interest at the
