Ing It being expected to go ahes

Shore Smith of Eugme, attorney for
tho plaintiff, and Stone ft Barrett and
Thomas Drake ror the defendant, had
a conference at which a settlement
was finally determined on, $1,500 be

It Is asserted, would hare been per

the element who were unwilling to
give tho plaintiff such a large wra

$2,750 waa Anally the amount the

When the suoreme court considered
tho case, on Its being appealed by the
defendant tho higher bench decided
to send tho case back to the circuit
court for another trial, holding that
tho lower court erred In allowing
opinion of witnesses as to whether It
was negligence for the plaintiff to ride
standing In his wagon. The upr
court said that tho testimony of wit

meroly to show whether auch manner
of riding was customary.
