Pouse, of McHenry, was pitted against the veteran legal war-horse, V. S. Luntley, Wednesday in a case between the Wilbur Lumber company and Mrs. Chris Norager. Mr. Pouse represented the plaintiff and Mr. Lumley the defendant. The company is endeavoring to compel Mrs. Norager to settle for lumber, coal, etc., bought by her husband, who formerly conducted the Orchard Beach hotel, near McHenry. A jury listened to the evidence presented and arguments by the opposing counsel Wednesday forenoon and retired to the jury room just before the noon recess. This <|^e\ was originally against Chris Norager and wife, but Chris, sometime last year, left his place of residence and is reported to be some where in Russia. From the evidence it. seems that Norager and his wife were living apart, she in Chicago and Chris in McHenry. They were evidently on friendly terms, however, and the plaintiff claims that the goods purchased by the husband constituted family expense, therefore the wife should be held liable, according to the reading of the law. The defense argued that the wife is not liable for such an account, that the plaintiff is only trying to collect from Mrs. Norager because her husband has left the country and she is the only one left to sue. The jury returned a compromise verdict, Mrs. Norager to pay a part of the amount claimed by the lumber company. . INJUNCTION IS VIOLATED flM Fine Aaacaocd Against Jacotr Weingart For Contempt of Court [Friday's Woodstock Daily] Jacob Weingart, who resides near Johnsburg, had a hearing before Judge Shurtleff Thursday in circuit court, being charged with the violation of an injunction issued by the judge, which prohibited Mr. Weingart from using a certain road except for certain purposes. Mr. Weingart purchased a lot near the Johnsburg bridge, upon which he built a summer home. The lot was bought frt>m John A. Miller, who recently asked that Mr. Weingart be restrained from using a road running thru the subdivision except to get to and f^om the said lot. A temporary injunction was issued which was later made permanent. Mr. Weingart was accused of using the road to haul stuff from his farm and admitted going thru a number of times to take his milk to Ringwood, but claimed that he also had business in connection with the work done on the lot. D. R. Joslyn, Sr., appeared as attorney for Mr. Miller and V. S. Lumley represented Mr. Weingart. Judge Shurtleff ruled that Weingart was guilty of contempt of court and assessed a fine of $100. Atty. Lumley made application for an appeal to the higher court, ADDITIONAL EXCHANGES Atty.- James F. Casey, one of Woodstock's oldest aa well as most able lawyers, has received his appointment as master in chancery in the McHenry county cireuit court, the appointment having been made by Judge Edward D.
