Friendly Suit A friendly suit for damages in the sum of $l4O, was filed in the Adams circuit court by Fred Foos, by his next friend, Andrew Foos, his father, against the Decatur Democrat Company. The Foos lad who is under .ourteen years of age, and who was a carrier for the Daily Democrat, offered a broki n leg on July 19, last, when a large makeup table stone, leaning against the building in the alley at the rear of the Democrat office, fell over against him. The Democrat company eyries insurance against such accidents .in I /he <usudty < ompany has paid ti." — -ft . .. IMPORTANT TEST CASE (Continued from Page One) tors also annulled all of the free passes wltich had been issued, hoping in bring in enough money < paid admissions to re a of the endehtedness ■ iiding. | .■«. - snical Point • - ’ ortificates specified, it ;■ tha. the holder was not liable nlefts the total amount of the subs- . ription secured was enough to build he Imuding. About $24,500 was raised through subscription and the contraction of the building was begun. 11 iwever, before the building was con;, leted, the cost .exceeded the amount . f subset iptlon, and the defendant in .bis case avers that he is not liable. The Auditorium association mainains that the- amount which the cost x< ceded the total subscription was !ue to the variation of the cost of uiilding material mid of labor, bew on the time the construction was tarteil and the time of completion, ’he point is a technical one ami there : 5 mueh speculation as to the outcome. Says Contract Was Violated Michaud claims that since the or- • anization annulled the free passes he contract was violated and that he s not liable for the remainder of his ~!i(!ge. On the outcome of this case eats the fate of approximately $1590 rutstanding on unpaid pledges, it is -aid. Should the Community Auditorium win the case, it is probable hat all of the outstanding pledges will be paid, while if the defendant wins, it s likely that all of the $1,500 will be lost. The community building was erect'd in Berne in 1921 at a total cost of approximately $40,000. It is a fine building and is put to ninth good use :,y cemunity. Attorney James T. Merrympn, of his city is appearing for the plaintiff while the firm of Hamilton & Weickng. of Blufton is representing the defendant. Witnesses subpoenaed to testify for he plaintiff were iT'red Rhorer, E. C. Berry, J. F. Lehman,, Fred Kemholtz, Jerry IJecbty, and C. 0. Lehman. Emil Ashedman testified for the defendant. All evidence had been Introduced and the arguments were being presented by the attorneys late this afternoon.
