The gi eater pail oC yestpiday was
taken up In ll&tening to the defense in
tlie case of Peter Bennett against John
W. Williams. It wms alleged by Will
lams and his witnesses that Bennett
was driving along the road recklessly
at the time of the accident and that he
was guilty of the negligence that
caused the accident. The case went to
the jury at ! o'clock.
A erdlet was lelurned eslerduy In
the case of the Cerealine Maniifactui-Ing-
