$500 VERDICT
TO WESTP0RT MAN
FOR INJURED FOOT


A verdict OF $500 for an injury
which permanently crippled him. was
awarded Edwin A. Beers of Westport
by a jury in the civil superior court
this afternoon. He sued the New
Haven railroad company for $4,000
alleging that while he was unloading
a freight car it was struck by swift
cher, throwing Beers to the ground.
One foot was injured, Beers said.
Attorney Henry b. shannon OF
counsel for the plaintiff, thinks tho
dime he found on the floor yester-
day while addressing the jury may
have brought him good luck. He
paused in his speech to pick up the
money and then asked Judge Webb's
pardon. It was learned afterward that
the dime belonged to Attorney Bur-
nett of the railroad counsel who ad-
rnitted there was hole in his pocket.
The jury was out only about an
hour. The accident happened March
26 last in Westport where Beers IS
in business. He appeared in the
court room walking with the aid of
crutches to show the effects of his
injury.

Stion and she wanted to get back the
purchase price, $500. The jury after
an hours de1iberation found for Mrs

Mrs Fisher conducted the store for
several years and her son Andrew act
ed as clerk. After his death she did
not feel able to carry on the business
