then made an order which either
granted the defendant new trial or
a settlement for $1,000. The plaintiff
accepted the new trial.
The second trial resulted in a verdict
of $1,000 for the plaintiff and the de-
PENDANT filed notice of an appeal.
Bates then started an action against
Patterson to recover small amount
on account for stallion fees and other
items and Patterson brought coun-
ter claim, including $4,000 for adultery
with his wife, which acts were alleged
to have taken place subsequent to the
date of the other trial.
Mrs. Patterson then started an action
for divorce against her husband, alleg-
ing drunkenness and cruel and inhu-
man treatment and desertiOn as the
grounds for the action.
Thru the stipulation which was filed
all cases are wiped out
Terms Of Settlement.

the decree upon the grounds Of deser-
ton, providing the court sees At to
grant it upon that grounds.
