A Damaftc Suit.
The city of Franklin is up against a
genuine damage suit. Sheriff Walrath
came down Monday and served the pa
pers on the city attorney and on Wed
nesday papers were likewise served on
Mayor Cross. The plaintiff is Miss
Itayard of Lincoln, a. teacher in the
public schools who was hired for the
eighth grade. The amount of dam
ages sought is $5,000, the maximum
limit allowed by law. County Attor
ney Miller and Lawyer George Adams
of Lincoln are retained as counsel for
the plaintiff. This is the same Mr.
Adams who assisted the county attor
ney in the famous Kritchbaum murder
trial ti few years ago. The suit is the
result of an injured foot received by
the complainant when returning from
the school house some time in Novem
ber, caused by a board loose at one
end flopping up and coining down on
her foot. The city must answer by
the SMli of March, but it is not neces
sary that the case should be tried at
this time. The walk where the acci
dent occurred is between the school
house and the Exchange bank, and
the place was at one of the new cross
ings put in last fall. Franklin Senti
nel. Nr. Carpenter's Side of It.
In our item last week concerning
the suit to recover $1,450 from A. II.
Carpenter and itttrke & Campbell of
Imperial, it was stated that Mr. Hush
ton had tiled the suit. It seems this
was a mistake, according to the follow
ing statement from Mr. Carpenter:
"Rki Cloud, Jan. 5, l'JOT.
"In reply to the article recently is
sued in the Red Cloud Chief stating
that Joshua Rush ton is suing me for
81,450, which was all greatly misrep
resented. Mr. Kushton sold his con
tract to IScrnard McNcny for $150, the
17th of January, and it is McNeny
suing instead of Uushton.
"The paper also stated that they
couldn't give a clear title to the land,
which was also a mistake, for the
deeds giving a clear abstract of title
were sent to the Hank of Imperial and
are held there waiting for the balance
of the money to be paid on the laud,
which is $2550. A. II. Caiht.ntku."

Mrs. Topping.
Mrs. Rosanna Topping, 81 years of
age, died last Sunday morning at the
home of her son, S. A. Hurwell, near
Inavale. The remains were shipped to
Illinois Wednesday for interment.
Death came as the result of a fall sus
tained by the old lady about three
weeks ago. Mrs. Topping, who had
been living with a daughter in Colo
rado, came to Inavale last fall to spend
the winter with her son. About three
weeks ago she fell, while in the house,
and sustained severe bruises, and,
though her injuries were not thought
to be serious, she gradually got worse
until death came to her relief. In
dressing the body for burial, Under
taker Amuck discovered a severe
wound Mil the back of the old lady's
head, which it is supposed she received
by striking her head on the piano when
she fell. She did not complain of pain
in her head, but is thought this injury
is what caused her death.
