On Monday, December 30, the
courc rciiRsembled with a new panel
ot jurors, in place of the pnnel that
bu'l been dbnufsed. The case ol
Chnsc vs. Egljert Rosecrans war
taken up.
In the summeruf 1911 the plaintiff
wns the manuger of the Echo Lake
lloiiRe at Tynon, a populai sunnncr
resort. The defcndant is a young
man, a law student, and son of a
prominent physictan of Hoboken,
N. J., and hc wns at Tjson for the
summer, in charge of a canip of
some 35 young pcople. A young
l.idy, a cousnn of the defendant, came
to Tyson and engaged a room at
this hotel, but had her meals else
wliere. This was not satisfactory to
Mr. Chase and he requested her to
give up the room. This Was Mr.
Chase's reason, but the defendant's
testimony tended to show that Mr.
Chase gave bim another reason
somewhat reflecting upon her
clinrncter.
In a personal enccunter over ihe
nffair, Mr. Chase got the worst of it.
Defendant wasarrested forbreach
of peace and pleaded guilty and 'was
mulcted with a small fine Then
followed this suit. Plaintiff's testi
mony tended to show that he vas
seriously injured and that his hearing
had been impaired thereby. Defend
ant's testimony tended to show that
he was but slightly injured, if at all,
and had handled heavy baggage and
attended n datice soon after and
attended to the business of the hotel
as;u8ital,.and that plaintiff has been
ancT is i seeming nervous and ex
citable person. Dr. Bryant of
Ludlow tcstified for plaintiff and
Dr. Jackson of Woodstock for
defendant.
Verdict for plaintiff; damages
fioo The damages claimed were
$300. H. L. Skeels and Ernest
Moore for plaintiff. G. F. Davis,
Raymond Trainor and Harlon
Uesson ' of Hoboken, N. J.,' for
defendant.
The pext case, Van Tussell vs.
Chase, wiis"discontimted and a'thi d
case, lCniglits 'vs. Rosecrans; was
settled for the n mount of the judge
ment before the justice.
This case was followed by Byron,
llatbnrn vs. the Town of Barnard,
an , iictjon to recover the value of
certain sheep that had been kille'd by
'ogsT"'Ifi ese te c t menTe n de red sb n e
but the plaintiff demanded a
larger sum and brought sUit.
The result was a verdict for
plaintiff for $123.54 damages and
costs. Mr. B.itchelder and Raymond
Ttainor for plaintiff, H. L. Skeels
and Ei nest Moore ior defendant.
This concluded the business of
the week. On Monday afternoon,
the 6th inst., the cburt resumed its
8ession.
There was no case ready for trial
on Monday- ii'nd' 'the case ot Foster
tH. Hammond, Admr., vs. VVi liam

neyville, prior to her marriage to
Alr. Alexander.
The case was submitted to the
jury without argument by cOunsel,
under the charge of the court. The

verdict for the plaintiff, administia
tor to hold all the articles named in
his declaration.
