PENDANT. Attorney Klein gave his
summation at 2 o'clock at the re-
opening of court.
Much interest has been shown
in these cases since the trial start
cd early in the week. Perhaps 1t
is due to the considerable medical
testimony offered by both sides. IT
is the testimony of medical experts
that is expected to form the prin-
cipal issues for the jury's consid-
GRAFTON. The plaintiff seeks re-
covcry for injuries to her head

asks $4,000 damages. Her hus-
band seeks 5000 for medical at

The unusual feature of the case
Is that no complaint has been made
