Payments Halted

The District ceased payments
to the couple after ending its
contract with them in January,
1857 after 1t learned about the
Morse case.
Mr., Bryant argued that the
Horizons had no intention "to
cheat anybody" and only OBJ
tained better grade caskets for
the witnesses after they had
asked for them.
Mr.. Stark noted that the de-
PENDANTS signed District forms
denying they received any
money for burying indigents
except from the city or for
flowers.
"The contract specifically
provides that friends or rela-
tives are not to be charged
