UlXilO H. WITHERS MIMMINCJER, J
Vlio Held The First Court in Newberry's
New Court House.
An exceedingly heavy day's work j'
ius done on Saturday. The case of |
. J. Dean v. the Sun Insurance Com- I
miiy of New Orleans was taken up '
ii Saturday morning. The testimony (
onsumed (lie whole day, with an iiiermission
of only an 'hour for din- 1
icr. The jury and all parties inter- ;
sted wanted to finish (he case on <
Mini da\, in order that the jurv might
lot Inn e t<> come hack on Monday,
lie arguments were begun after sup?er,
and Judge Memniinger's charge ,
o the jury was concluded at five (
unutcs before midnight. The jurv
e tired and remained in the room j
iboat forty minutes, bringing in
heir verdict at about 12.35 Sunday
lorning. It is somewhat novel for a
ourt to run so late at night, and
here were many spectators in the i
ourt house.
The case resulted from Mr. Dean's '
oss bv fire in March of this year.
Jr. Dean had five insurance polices, >
n'*l I''-"* loss must be pro rated among <
licse companies. Had his loss been
lit ire lie could only have recovered
>.{,000 under the terms of his policies, j
The policy in issue on- Saturday
vas for .$1,000 and the verdict of
lie jury was based on an estimate
?t about $1,.)00 loss, to be prorated
imong all the companies in which Mr. '
)ean was insured, the verdict on Satirday
night being for $310.50, the Sun
ompany's pro rata share of the
lamage which the jury had fixed.
The plaintiff was represented by
dessrs. Rlease & Dominick. and the
lefendant by Messrs. Smith, Iiamnond
and Smith, of Atlanta, and
dessrs. Hunt, Hunt and Hunter, of
STcwberrv. ' Mr. Dominick appeared
or the plaintiff and Mr. Hammond
ind Messrs. Hunt, Hunt and Hunter
or the defendant.
Mr. Dean has cases against the otlim
insurance companies in which he
eld policies which will be disposed of
a tor.
/The insurances companies have filh1
a bill in equity having for its purpose
to put all the cases on the
' l'lity side of the court and to try
hem all together before the judge,
fitting as chancellor, in order that if
the companies are liable each may
>ear its proportionate share of the
loss, the damage being fixed at the
<ame in each case. This motion is being
contested.
Mr. Dean, it will be recalled, suffered
damage by fire in March, when
i fire originated in -his furniture
store, on lower Main street. The
companies contend in the first place,
tlvat, by reason of violation of certain
clauses in the policies, and by
reason of Mr. Dean having taken out
more insurance than his policies permitted,
the companies are not liable
nt all. If they are liable, they contend
that his damage was only between
$;>00 and $750. The case on
Saturday was hard fought, being a
legal battle from start to finish.
In the case of Minnie Livingston v.
D. L. Wedaman, executor of his
mother's estate, suit for $200 for personal
services rendered Mr. Wedanvan's
mother during her last illness,
Judge Memmingcr on Friday morning
directed a verdict for the defendant.
The plaintiff was represented by
Messrs. Blease & Dominick. and the
defendant by Messrs. Johnstone &
Cromer.
The case of D. Ralph Scurry v. P.
N. Boozer, suit on account for sawing
lumber, resulted in a verdict of1
(>185 for the plaintiff. The plaintiff Jf
vas represented by Messrs. Blouse &
)oniinick, and the det'ondant by ;
llessrs. Hunt, Hunt & Hunter, Jr
It is probable that the matters on J
lie equity side of the court which 8
lave been set for hearing will be dis- M
iosed of today or by tomorrow noon w
il the* latest. %
Judge Memniinger, who has been
adding this term of Mie court, has j
lib pa tched business in a manner 1
vhieh has been characteristic of him J
unee he was chosen to the xbonch <
nore than tliree years ago. The court <
ms boon kept busy, and the business, <
nid a large amount of it, has been lisposed
of with dispatch. Firm in
lis rulings, his object being to do j
justice between the parties with all 1
lie dispatch possible consistent with
i proper administration of justice, he
las made an enviable record during
lis service on the circuit bench, and
lie manner in which he' conducted
lie business of the Newberry court
vas in keeping with his record.
Judge Memminger will go to his
loine in Charleston, where 'lie will >
'pond the time until the Laurens
lourl, which begins on next Monday.
