? SUING GERRALD ON A CONTRACT Last week another suit for injunction and damages was brought 111 this county by the Tri-State Tobacco Cooperative Marketing A s s o c i ation against P. A. (Patrick) Gerrald, alleging a breach of the cooperative marketing contract made by Gerrald with the association some time ago, and probably prior to the selling of the crop last season. Last week the Herald contained an account of the first suit in this county brought against W. 1. Hill. It appears that this suit against Gerrald is similar in all respects to the one filed against Hill. The summons and other papers were served on Gerrald by the sheriff of Horry County on July 31st. His office was attending to the matter of }iis return and making entry of the summons on the sheriff's books. The defendant, it is said, was much incensed when the papers were served on him in the case. It appears that word had gone out that he would violate the contract and this came to the knowledge of those v.-ho are looking after the members who breach the contract in this county. The papers served by th? sheriff resulted. When asked about the matter and his attitude regarding- the contract, Mr. Gerrald said that he will go to jail before he will sell any more tobacco under the contract. He claims that misrepresentations were made to him to induce him to sign the contract by the representative or agent of the association. Mrs. Gerrald suggested to him at this juncture that he could put up his tobacco and keep it awaiting a decision of the case which the association has brought against him. Before he would do this he said that he would put it in the stalls and .make fertilizer out of it. He did not mention anything about the five cents per pound damage provided for in the contract, nor the three hundred dollars attorney's fees which he says the papers demand to come out of him. in the event of a termination of the action in .favor of the association. Tl,~ 1 1. i: ttm 1_ i i iic ut'i ciiwuni lives in r loyus township. He owns a total of between thirteen hundred and two thousand acres of land, making" him easily the wealthiest land owner in the whole of Floyds township. He has been petting along well, owns many fertile acres, and runs many tenants on these lands. Mr. Gerrald has been a very industrious and thrifty man. Unfortunately, about two years ago, he suffered a stroke of paralysis from which, however, he has partially recovered. His power to work and attenr to the every day affairs of his large farms is not what it was before his illness. He has a wife and large family of children. It could not bp learned whether the defendant will engage lawyers to act in his defense, but judging by the way he talked about the suit, he will fight the case to the bitter end. He had intended, it appears to sell his entire crop on the auction floors. In view of the injunction served with the summons and complaint, he will have to make a change in his plans. He will doubtless either store his tobacco awaiting a decision by the courts or turn the leaves into fertilizer as he has threatened to do. o ~ TRKSPASS NOTICE All persons are hereby notified and warned apainst hunting, feeding flock, ranpinp, entering upon and 1/ Wew I app I ?says the won i "Our families an || always getting home we order ( I case from the gr< I do groceries.
