Thompson, 70 of West Point, Nebraska, against Emil Suhr, Dodge county farmer, and John T. Bauman and Herman Koch. West Point bankers. “Ellen’s Best” is a son of “Lady Ellen,” producer of “Ardmore.” Mrs. Thonipson raised “Ardmore” and sold him a short time before he was en tered in the national shows, pro nounced champion and subsequently sold for thirty-one thousand dollars. In November, 1922, Mrs. Thompson alleges, she lent “Ellen’s Best” to Suhr for breeding purposes, and that after keeping him for some six months, Bauman and Koch went to his farm and took possession of the animal, claiming they owned a part interest in him. It is the contention of, the bankers that the animal was included in a mortgage Mrs. Thompson made some time previously, but she strenuously denies this, averring “Ellen’s Best” was never mortgaged. Attorneys John L. Hasselquist and John L. Webster represents Mrs. Thompson. The suit was filled in this county because service was gotten on Suhr here. Mrs. Thompson has been interested in Hereford cattle for twenty-five years. Her two sons are ranchers in Holt County, Nebraska. SLAYMAKER-DVORAK. (Stuart Advocate. Dec. (1.) Mr. Edword O.
