Something like 14 years ago the Company was sued in the|Circuit Court by a é salesman for a commission on the sale of an expensive lot because the manager: {refused â€" to pay hush money. The salesman, a few months previously had made|a contract to devote | ~his entire time to the business for a year. However, when winter came he ignored his conâ€" / tract and took up another sales proposition in Chicago, saying that he had been informed ‘ that he could nct sell cemetery lots in the winter. He admitted that he never had sgen, teleâ€" â€" phoned or written any member of the family that had purchased the lot and so payment ( ~Of the commission was refused, especially in view of the fact that h¢ had no tert asâ€" ,F ed to him and had violated his contract. The fact of the commemcement of guit was . printed in the two daily papers then published in Waukegan. § 1. | _:\ _ Every effort was made during two or three years by our attorney to get the case beâ€" i fore the court for trial, but those efforts were unsuccessful, Both la yers knew the C ‘“ 18 _ (Continued from last week) _ } 1} _ LATEST HOLDâ€"UP ATTEMPT NOT NEW. s# |!\ Several times during the 17 years since ground was broken for this .devm y suits have been commenced against this Corporation for the sole purpose of money dishonestly from its management, These suits were comm because g‘m askumed by the persons commencing them that this management w not stand ‘for the fif@vorable publicity incident to tjp charges in legal documents, or|of a trial in court, ‘; If the management had been ineless and sensitive to such publicity, many thouâ€" sands of dollars would have gone to persons as vvyhollygundeserving of the same fll kid« ve or an ordinary "stickup" However, a firm stand was en in ev case. )t a dollar has been given to buy silence on false charges. This t attack is not the irst of that kind, nor even the fifth.

I autho that foreman to Â¥e the old farmhouse papered and painted on the inside so that we might use it as the résidence of a teamster. The foreman simply authorized a man to whom somebody reâ€" férred him to do the work and rendér his bill, instead of securing an ¢stimate in advance. Vxll,en the work was done the foreman exhibited the bill to me and expressed the opinion that it was exhorbitant. l ‘ 4 $y * Pnsd dor‘y s s )0: fooipes : i R # TNL ||\ Every person in any way interested in NORTHSHORE GARDEN OF MEMORIES s éutltled to know of such incidents in its history as are hereinafter| related.

I do not recall that I was t at the trial but Â¥as compelled to leave that to the Tm ifl'd\ar‘fi‘ here. A judgment rendered Aagainst this Corporation. Then I appealed the case to the Circuit Court, is step indicated learly to the paperâ€"hanger that we were going to fight his charge in|a responsible court. He did not want such a trial and so Accepted my offer in settlement, thus saving this Comâ€" ny from the loss of a substantial sum that first year. . > [1 i After several postponements of the hearing the case was seltled in the pri : office ("In chambers") of the Judge without a witness being sw The Circuit J %hard both sides, looked at photographs of grr:e markers furnished by that granite ‘cern and of those which we claimed ought to be used here. (The Judge promptly s ‘;fi "I THINK THAT NORTHSHORE GARDEN OF MEMORIES HAS| A RIGHT TO M. [ TTS OWN RULES." That incident simply showed an attempt by fin outside el ‘|\ Overâ€"ride the rules and the very gpirit of the comparatively new of interment & !3 rfld in a large suburban residence district whlazl formerly had only wery ordl::z ‘an( ‘| pellent graveyards, That decision was in ling with many court dec rendered in f | of cemeteries in several states during the last few years.

The bluff did not work! _ | * ; | _‘ 8. When erecting the Cemetery Service Building, in the q’»me of which glere was to be an artesian well, we bought a pressure water tank 5 ft. by 25 ft. to be placed in the basement of that building. Upon the arrival of the tank on a flat at: North Chicago, I telephoned a man whose name had been mentioned for moving the same from ‘thh flat car and placing it in position, as we did not have the proper equipment |for such ay’ob. The man said he would do the job for $300.00,. I did not faint and did not show an ‘indignaâ€" tion, although I was very much awire that the charge was ctically an attempt at a Fholdâ€"up." I got in touch with another man who had the moving |equipment and who promptly said he would do the job for $30,00. Qe did it in an entirely satisfactory manner for that sum. : @ 10e $ nE \/â€" Thus, it was apparent that the first man gimply guessed he was dealinginitl an easyâ€"mark" who probably was not familiar with practical mat of that kind and so had an opportunity to get ten times as much as the service was réally worth. _ , a substantial sum was saved to this ation by reason of the practical know! e of the 4. A few years ago some slight repairs were needed on a car longing to the Comâ€" p_agiy. One of the men working here recommended a certain garage ¢oncern. 'l‘fi recomâ€" mendation worked and the car was taken to that garage. Certainly rs not exceeding the value of $30.00 were necessary. However, a bill for upwards of $90.00 was rendergd. ‘Again, we refused to pay on the grounds that the charges were #xh itant and dishonest. ;’l‘he concern induced the foreman of another garage to testify in their behalf in Justice ‘Court. We lost and promptly appealed the case to the Circuit Court. [Then the gtzge e&- cernâ€"knowing well they did not have an honest caseâ€"lost no time in accepting the sett ‘ment which had been offered before the suit in Justice Court was menced. â€"Again, a | ‘case commenced in the belief that we would pay to avoid unpl t publicity never . ‘reached the Circuit court room ! s | , $A 1 MONUMENT DEALERS ATTEMPT TO OVERâ€"RIDE RULES t | [ 5.

Finally | I &mme apparent that the only way to protéct this place against such inefficiency M’ ‘degradation was for us to adopt a rale that the Company would furnish all: memorial) \work with the distinct understanding that the same should be of t highest quality and: ‘at as low prices as any other concern would supply similar work for.| A monument concern ‘induced the national organization of monument dealers to put up the expenses int t to ‘the application in the Circuit Couqtefor an injunction to restrain this Company m |vÂ¥enting that concern from placing tertain pieces of undesirable granite in N | | GARDEN OF MEMORIES. $ â€" |+ § 8 t | manager. 1e e e RENOR CC .
