A Rich Case!
A civil action promising amuse
ment and liable to excite the curi
osity of the Plattsmouth bar is now
pending in Judge Archer's court, in
which Mr. E. G. Vanatta seeks to
collect the sum of $10 from Mr.
Mathew Gering.
It appears that upon the recovery
of a judgment by Mr. Gering
against Robt. Metteer in the dis
trict court in the late celebrated
libel case of Gering vs. Metteer, Mr
K. G. Vanatta, one of Metteer's at
torneys, agreed, in consideration of
the payment to him by Mathew
Gering of $20, he, Vanatta, would
induce Metteer to settle and pay up
the judgment recovered by Gering.
That thereupon the judgment was
settled and paid, and Vanatta al
leges that Gering has paid $10 of
the twenty agreed to be paid and
now refuses to pay and settle the
balance hence the suit. We are
not informed just what Mr. Gering' s
defense will be.
