The jury in the case Of Anna Sloan
VS.. Thomas Mahar, which has been
on trial in the United States district
court at Montpelier for two days. re.
turned a verdict for 81 600 about 4
O'Clock Wednesday afternoon. The
plaintiff sued for $4,000. The suit
was brought as result Of the acci-
dent which happened Oct. 5, when a
joy ride was taken to Hydeyille fol-
lowing a musicale given at the Mahar
home in Fair Haven and in which the
new Packard automobile of Mr.. Mahar
was so damaged that Mr.. Mshar never
operated II again.
In making the arguments to the
jury, the plaintiff claimed that the
accident was due to excessive speed of
the car and brought out that it was
the Travellers Insurance company that
was fighting the case, while the de-
fendant claimed that something went
wrong with the automobile and inti-
mated that the tire and rim OF the
left rear wheel came off the machine.
There is companion case pending in
Rutland county court.
