case concerns the works of a watch
Mr Vernoon alleges that he took the
watch to Davldow's with Instructions
that It bo overhauled and cleaned. He
called In a few days and upon payment
of $1.50 was given the watch. Later
ho discovered that, to his mind, tho
watch case had never been opened. It
worked Just ns rickety as before.
For this reason the warrant was
sworn out. Mr. Davldow denied the
chat go nnd entered ball In the sum of
$200 to appear at court.
