would get it; that they complained
to Mr. Kiefer who had vouched for
the honesty and respectability of Har-
rison. :
Further the attorney said they would
prove that gf a conference of the lo-
cal men with. Mr. Harrison in New
York he had given them checks for
the money they claimed but that the
checks were not honored at’ the bank
for lack of funds. 'Then he said, they
had a conference in this city about
Christmas, 1929, and on January 7,
1930, the local men went to New York
City, saw Mr. Wells, a representative
of Harrison, and that the latter se-
cured a note purporting to be signed
by Harrison for the $114,500 and in-
dorsed by Mr. Kiefer and others, pay-
able in thirty days to Attorney Ross
Lynn. When presented at maturity to
the Lawyers Trust Co. of New York
it went to protest. The suit against
Mr. Kiefer for the value of the note
vllowed, and the attorney concluded
by saying that if these facts were pro-
ven they would expect a verdict for
the full amount, with interest.
Ross Lynn, the plaintiff, was then
called and told of receiving the note.
Percy A. Brown testified to his busi-
ness dealings with Harrison, the
checks which were worthless, and the
final making of the note, which was
ndorsed by Mr. Kiefer. r
ended with this and Attorney Frank
A. McGuigan, one of counsel for the
defendant, outlined the case for the de-
fense, that while he admitted the mak-
ing of:the note, he alleged that fraud
was perpetrated by the beneficiaries,
that Harrison was subjected "to threats
and intimidation and was forced to
make the note and induced to have

proposed to prove this by the deposi-
tions of Harrison.
Mr. McGuigan took the
stand and read sixty-two interroga-
tions of Harrison in prison. Many of
these were objected to by Mr. Slattery
and other attorneys representing the
plaintiff, but most ofr them were ad-
mited by Judge Jones. In these Har-
rison admitted knowing Mr. Kiefer for
many years, that he had business
dealings with Messrs Brown, Mailan-
der and Miller, that he married the
stepdaughter of the latter, admitted
tre conference with plaintics in New
\York and this city, and that he was
forced to make the note and secure
indorsers.
When Attorney McGuigan comple*-
ed his reading of the interrogatories,
they were admitted and a statement
read to tre jury that Harrison was
not placed in prisolr by any act of the
plaintiffs, and his imprisonment had
thing to do with the present case.
It is understood that he was convie

THREE LEGGED HERO
“Buddy” is a three-legged po-
iice dog but he played the role of
a hero in a little drama Tues-
day morning winning the plau-
dits of his many admirers in
Shavertown.
For months “Buddy,” who is
owned by Herman VanCampgen,
has been limping about Shaver-
town as the result of an automo-
bile accident in which he lost a
front paw. At first his owner
provided him with a leather foot
but “Buddy” would rather limp
than be bothered with a “wood-
en leg.” And there was no get-
ting out of it, “Herm” couldn't
do away with a dog that had
“Buddy’s” qualities.
Early Tuesday morning thieves
entered the Geyer store next to
VanCampen'’s restaurant where
“Buddy” was sleeping, but the
big fellow wasn’t sleeping just
then, and soon things began to
happen that istirred the neigh-
borhood. For the third time in
his life “Buddy” was there to
sound the alarm that drove the
thieves into a hasty retreat.
Seventy cents was all the thieves
got, but a three-leaged police
dog oot an extra portion for
breakfast and a lot of extra pats
that told him there's some place
in the world after all for a dog
that’s aot three leas.
