decided not to resort to the statute of
Limitation plea In nghting the suit
brought against the city by Capt. S. ].
Watson, Sr., for the recovery of $500
damages because of the condemning of
the oyster beds in Hampton Creek.
City Attorney Tailiaferro told the
council that the city might put up the
plea Of the statute of limitation, but he
wanted advice and instructions from
the Council AS to whether he should re-
sort to such a claim in the court He
said he was OF the opinion that the plea
might not hold good In court.
Capt. f. w. Darling said that he had
little opinion Of the man who would
claim the statute OF limitation in or
der TO evade paying an obligation"
and then he offered "a resolution d.
recting the city attorney to fight tho
case in the courts on It's merits" This
means that the city viii not put up any
contest as to whether the claim Of
captain Watson Is outlawed by his
failure TO bring suit at an earlier date.
