statement maIe by Della O'Connor to
Ethel Keyser, when the latter de-
manded what was left of the $500
which had been placed in Della's
hands, according to an action
brought in common pleas by Mrs.
Keyser.
Mrs. Keyser alleges that defendant
has been acting as her agent since
July 27, 1914, during which time de
fendant had the management of
fund of $500 which she was to invest
and later render an accounting.
In addition, there is further fund
of $400 which was placed in defend
ants hands to care for plaintiff during
her afiiiction with nervous trouble.
Although plaintiff has repeatedly
demanded an accounting of the $500
in defendants hands, she has been re.
fused such, she claims, and even told
that 81 propose to keep this money,
for you can't prove it is your money
by the defendant. Another answer
plaintiff claims she got was, "If you
try to make me pay that money back,
/ will set up claim against YOU"
Plaintif asks for an accounting and
judgment for amount due her. b. 4.
