Orvis, represent­ ing Mrs. Minnie Richardson, the vic­ tim of the railriding episode, went in­ to court .and filed Mrs. Richardson's claim for $1,600, received thru a ver­ dict against the estate of the late Mrs. Lavirta Raymond, who accoHBpr to Mr. Orvis, left about $28,000 at the time of her death recently. The trial of the claim has been set for Novem­ ber 16. When Mrs. Richardson instituted her $100,000 damage suit against Mrs. Raymond and the four other Volo women the jury, after a lengthy de­ liberation, awarded her damages of $1,600. Attorney Orvis contends' that all or each of the defendants can be held for the entire amount of the ver­ dict. The damages never have been paid and it is. in hopes that the claim of the estate of Mrs. Raymond will be allowed after the hearing, that Mr. Orvis is instituting the proceedings. He hopes to be able to collect the en­ tire amount of the judgment from the Raymond estate, as he thinks it might be difficult tp collect it against the other defendants. There were four other defendants, Mrs. Alma Walton, Mrs. Peter Stadt­ feld, Mrs. Anna Stadtfeld and Mrs. Chris Sable. The judgment, as given in court, was against all five, but the belief was at the time the verdict was rendered that Mrs. Raymond was the only one who owned any property of account That's why at the time the question as to whether she, because of that fact, was responsible for .the en­ tire amount, some attorneys held she would be liable but for one-fifth of the amount. The Volo case is the one wherein Mrs. Richardson "was ridden on a rail by the Volo women. Later they were prosecuted on the criminal side of court and found guilty of the charge, each being assessed a fine of $500. Later, however, on request of State's Attorney Dady, who prosecuted the case, Judge Donnelly suspended the fine following a severe lecture to the women. The civil suit for damages came along later. Mrs.SRaymond was sick during the trial of the damage suit and was not in court. She died a few wee_ks later. . A Farewell Party T,ant Friday afternoon a. haynwlt and team, driven by Master William Rothermel, carried eighteen members of the Riverview camp Thimble club out ot Locust Lodge at McColluiri's Lake for the purpose of thoroly sur­ prising two of their members, Mes- dames Giddings and Clancy, who will soon move to Lake Geneva, Wis. It is needless to say that the wagon con­ tained a substantial supper, which was served by the ladies at the close of an afternoon at cards and domi­ noes. The card prizes went to Mrs. Nick Justen, first, and Mrs. Clancy, the consolation. Mrs. C. Unti won the first honors at dominoes, while Mrs. John Niesen carried away the booby prize. In a few well chosen words Mrs. Henry Meyers, president of the club, presented Mrs. Giddings with a pretty piece of cut glass and Mrs. Clancy with a sterling silver thimble. The Thimble club was or­ ganized by Mrs. Giddings four years ago and its great success, both social­ ly and financially, has been due to the congenial manner in which its mpm-. bers have worked together, sharing both pleasure and trouble royally. Late in the afternoon the guests of the day started back for McHenry, leaving the pleasant day to take them back in history. "Memories so sweet and so sacred, not the flight of years can dim." TUESDAY THURSDAY * SATURDAY SUNDAY * Tuesday '-,£-7 Special Features Thursday Famous Players Saturday and Sunday Pathe Program Admission :: 10c Nursing Broken Arm Ernie Kamholz, son of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Kamholz of this place, is at his home here nursing a broken arm, sustained while working around a cement mixing machine on the Crop- ley farm near Solon. The accident occurred over two weeks ago, but the young man was not aware that his arm was broken until last week, when a careful examination by a Richmond physician revealed this fact. Mr. Kamholz, who is employed on the above named farm, was working about the -cement machine when, in some manner, his arm came in contact with the working parts thereof. His in­ jury was a painful one tfnd he waff advised to consult a doctor, which he did. The doctor examined the arm, but failed to discover the fracture. Kamholz went back to work and the arm failed to give him much trouble until last week, when the pain be­ came more severe. He again consult­ ed a physician, who told him that he was suffering from a broken arm. The fracture was set and he is now at home, where he will remain until he is again able to resume his duties on the farm where he is employed. Picked Strawberries Yesterday William Adams of Pistakee Bay stepped into our sanctum yesterday morning and laid before us a few samples of partially developed straw­ berries, which he had picked from vines in his garden that morning. While the berries were not ripe, they were fairly well developed and a few days of warmth would have matured them. He informed us that he and his family had been enjoying berries right along and that with a few more days of warm weather he expected to pick another mess this week. The berries were of the common variety. November strawberries are rare in these parts. • Dance a Success One of the most largely attended and otherwise most successful dances held in McHenry in recent years was that given by the Neutral club at Knox's hall last Saturday night. All told 167 dance tickets were disposed of and most.of the holders of tickets (some of which were sold in advance) were on hand to enjoy the event. The hall decorations were about the nif­ tiest ever seen in McHenry, some de­ claring that they even surpassed the efforts of the Just Us club, who have given so many successful dances here in late years. American flags and bunting were used thruout, while the orchestra stand was not only beau­ tiful, but novel as well. The front of the stand represented a double deck passenger boat, while in the back­ ground a lighthouse with real lights therein finished up a picture the like of which has never before been pro­ duced at a dance in McHenry. The boat, altho constructed of paper, could not have been made to look more natural. It was fully equipped and to make it look even more real­ istic it was tied to a specially built dock with ropes. Special scenic ef- icula were aiso used in the different dances and everyone present, both young and old, enjoyed the event thor­ oly. The confetti dance made a big hit with the dancers as did the other specials. By way of explanation it will probably be well to state that the Neutral club is made up of employes of the Hunter boat factory and they surely are to be congratulated on their manner of entertaining. The boys feel very grateful for the splendid turnout accorded them last Saturday night and have already consented to give another payty some time in the future. They wish to make it clear that the next dance will be entirely different from the one given last Sat­ urday night. Already they have a number of new features in mind that they will "spring" the next time, while the decorations will also be changed. Irish Lads Win Sunday In one of the most loosely played games yet staged between the Mc­ Henry Feds and Irish Prairie team, the latter named aggregation held the big end of the score at the McHenry diamond last Sunday afternoon, the final count of the afternoon's set-to being 15 to 11. The game started with Manager Geier and "Knock" Warner as the opposing flingers, Geier doing the twirling for the Feds, while Warner dished 'em up for the Irish lads. With the game hopelessly lost Geier gave way to Zuelsdorf, while Bonslett relieved Warner. The game was far from a first-class exhibition, but, nevertheless, the crowd seemed to enjoy it, as there was plenty of hit­ ting and errors to make it interesting for those who had come out for a November sun bath. The Feds lay their defeat to the fact that there wasn't any money up on the game, while the Irish boys declare that the Feds could not have beaten them un­ der any conditions last Sunday. So there you are. Take your pick. « Jolly Time at Volo Nearly forty couples attended the public card party give# for the bene­ fit of St. Peter's Catholic church at Volo one night recently. The event was held at the home of Mrs, Mathias Glossen, with Mrs. Glossen and Mrs. Peter L. Stadtfeld acting as host­ esses. The players occupied eighteen tables and a genuine good time was had by all. The ladies' prizes were awarded as follows: First, Mrs. S. J. Wagner; second, Mrs. John Oeffling; consolation, Mrs. ^phn B. Dowe. Gents' prizes: First, Ben Hiller; sec­ ond, John J. Wagner; consolation, jQhn Tosson. At the conclusion of the games delicious refreshments were served. As a result of the party $18.00 were cleared,' which has al­ ready been placed in the treasury of the church for which th« event was given. Who Has Work For Him?
