legged to be on note signed by mark
by the defendants in the action.
Since the filing of the action there
have been various paper filed by attor-
neys on both sides; these include a gem
eral denial answer, a motion to file
amended complaint, an affidavit. an af-
fidavit in support of n motion, n mo-
ton to set aside court order, "A mo-
tion to strike, an amended complaint

In this answer 1t is alleged that John
Nigro entered into a verbal agreement

the man with whom he agreed from
Italy to Pueblo on condition that she
marry N!Ero, but IL she refused to
marry him. then defendants were to
reimburse plaintiff, but IL Nigro failed

money should be complimentary and n
gift to the sister in question. The COM
plnint then goes on to state that Nigro,
after meeting and talking with the sis
ter. refused to marry her.

answer that they were ignorant of the

in question, by mark. in the full belief
that II was the contract which had
