The allegation of the plaintiff was that Nichols agreed that tho costs should abide the result of the oase and that the stenographic work should be taxed as part of the costs. The case went against Nichols.

It was called for trial befoie Judge Archbald at the last term of civil court, but after two days had been spent and the case had not even been well begun court became tired of the Job and threw It up, tell ing the parties that they had better continue It for settlement.
