? 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.
