Lopp-Speck Suit Compromiesd By Payment of $9,000.

The suit of Aaron Lopp vs. the Isaac V.. Speck estate, which was tried here some time ago and a verdict given the plaintiff for $10,750, is reported to have been compromised. The court considered the judgment excessive and reduced it to $6,800. The plaintiff then prayed an appeal. Another suit against the Speck estate was brought by Aaron Lopp. It was venued to this county from Newton and then on the defendant’s motio nsent to White county for trial. The sum of $9,000 is stated as the compromise basis and 'presumably this is in settlement of both the cases. Fraser & Isham, of Fowler, assisted by Attorney Roy Blue, of this city, represented the plaintiff in' the suit tried here.
