There were but three witnesses for
the defense and Mrs. Flora Mcguire,
Ellis present housekeeper was the
first to testify She said she had
known Ellis for ten or fifteen years
and'knew Mrs. WescOtt for about two
years. Mrs. Mcguire stated that Mrs
Wescott told her she received So per
week and her horses board for her
services at the Ellis place. She did
not know about Mrs. Wescott working
out of doors, and the deceased had
never told her that she worked in the
fields, she stated.
Mrs. Della Gumbleton of Moscow
said that she used to visit at the Ellis
farm and that she never saw Mrs
Wescott working in the fields. The
dead woman had told her she receiv-
ed So per week and the board of her
horse in payment for her work, and
preferred to work there because she
could be her own boss, rather than
to work where she could get higher
wage, according TO the witness.
Attorney S. W. Gould stated that in
the summer of 1920. he was employed
by Mrs. Wescott in her bankruptcy
proceedings, and that she received a
discharge from bankruptcy. Mr.
Gould testified that Mr.. Ellis paid
him $50 and Mrs. Wescott had paid
him $50 for this proceeding. Doc
tors bills and two bank books were
admitted without objection. A YER

was begun Tuesday forenoon with
Cover & Shumway for the plaintiffs
and Herbert Locke of the firm of Pat
tangall, Locke & Perkins of Augusta
representing the defendants. There
were two writs for deceit and one for
negligence, all three based on the
same transaction. In the year of
1920 it appears that Mr.. Russell and
Mr.. Prince engaged in the saw mill
business and began the establishing
of mill in Detroit for saving logs
of their own and also custom saving.
They had purchased and then owned
a mill in Detroit, and had all their
machinery except a boiler. including
steam engine. According to At
torneY Shumway, who opened the
case for the plaintiff, Prince and Rus
sell saw an nd of the defendant firm
in a paper, which was to the effect
that that firm had an engine and
boiler for sale. They wanted to buy
the boiler to go with their steam en-
CINE. Mr. Waterman, who represent
ed himself as an agent and an expert,
advised them, il was claimed, that
they would not want a steam boiler,

inexperienced men could operate it.
that they could save their slab wood

cided to take the engine and the

and they claim the agent did not tell
them the contents of it. They after
wards claimed that they looked into
the contract and found there We're
two provisions, one to the effect that
all representations and cores pond
ence which had previously been made
were abrogated and that the other
provision was to the effect that what
ever damage resulted to the plaintiff 5
the damage should be stipulated in
the sum of $l00 The plaintiffs
claim when the engine was delivered
that it came practically put together
and that they notified the agent. Mr.
Waterman to come and start it. after
they had made a few attachments.
but that he spent week practically
in getting the engine started; that
when he left the engine was not then
working properly; that they could not

kerosene would run through into an
other part of the engine. They fin
ally notified the corporation and ask

tiffs say that the defendant corpora
ton did not want to do this. but that
a member of the firm telephoned. tell
ing them not to consider taking out
the engine. nut that they would send
an expert from the factory. Within
a day or two after this conversation.

of the engine and in a few moments,

fused the non-suit and Attorney Cool

HeavieS, 1Oc Higher; Light
weights, 15c Lower.

4 decline of Is cents in light
weight hog prices and an advance
of 10 cents in heavy porker prices,
created a one level market at the
local yards Thursday, practically all
sales being made at $10.25. A top
Of 5000 was recorded. Pigs were
about steady at $7@9.75. Sows
were lower at $S.50@S.75 for smooths
and SS.25@S.5E for roughs. Stays
were unchanged at $6QS. Receipts
of 5000 and followers numbering l.
PAL were bearish factors in the mar
ket. Trading started draggy and
another day of poor clearance was
promised.
Little Improvement was seen in
cattle trading. Continued flood of
common cattle has resulted in dras-
tic price cuts and dull slow trade.
Although no changes in prices were
reported in early trade today, all
grades of beef steers are averaging
90 to IS cents lower than the close
last week. Steers in the 1900 pound
class have failed to sell. Butcher
heifers that sell below $3.50 in o
NAL times, proved difficult to move
at any price. Good beef cows moved
at S565.5O with a few prime heav-
les bringing $3.50. Medium to fair
cows moved at S4@4.5O. A decline
Of so cents Il 81 has been made in
cow quotations since the first Of the
week. Choice light heifers at $3.50
G10 are steady, but mediums at
S6.506S.25 are rs cents to 81 lower.
Receipts, 1000.
Veal prices were unchanged from
Wednesdays close. Choice stock
brought $3.50 after an early morn
ing recovery from a so cent drop.
The bulk Of the days receipts moved
at S10.50@12. Receipts, 700.
Sheep and lamb prices were I'M
changed. Choice lambs sold in a
small way at $3.50. Mixed lambs
brought S11912. Prices of sheep
we're nominally steady at Sc down.
Receipts, 600.
