Suit Over Livestock Decided.

Judgment for plaintiffs was ren dered by Judge A. B. Grace yester- day in the suit of Louis Woolfork ct al. vs. Bernice Lester, after the court had sustained a demurrer to the answer filed by defendant. Plaintiffs sued for $900 on notes, given as con- sideration in the purchase of several head of mules and horses. Defen- dant admits execution of ths notes, but contends that only $525 is due thereon. Defendant alleges that the notss were made for a greater amount at the suggestion of plain tiffs, to enable them to more easily use them as collateral with bank, and that a proviso in the purchase agrel1lant was not fulfilled.
 The appeal of Brit Lundy vs. John Johnson was dismissed for want of prosecution, costs being assessed against the defendant. The same ac- tlon was taken in the case of Dugger & Goshorn company vs. John John son.
