( the most interesting on this dro! of cn< the verdict caused surprise 1" is tl one in which Arthur Marsh sued Hi Western Union Company tor the Cailti" to deliver to him a telegram fiom hi mother in Gaffoey announcing :h death of his father, on Sunday. bVbiu ary 24th, 190t. Marsh claims that th< failure to deliver the telegram in timi to allow him to catch the train fo Spartanburg caused him to hire a hora and ride 20 miles through the colt weather to Etbethel church in Unioi nouMy from which he suffered menta anguish. cold and grip to the damage o: 91,000 and asked that ha he allowed tin? tmiall remuneration for the alwve tn-i tioued mental anguish, grip, etc The case w?:s lii?*d at t he I iH. term ol utiun. Him a nitsr,rial v as .Mined as tli j'liy could not ?eree. Thisjur\, lio.v ever, Rave Mr. Marsh a venlict of worth of consolation Here is about ihe substance of lh.< matter in brief as it came cut at the trial. The teleuiam reached Tfni?n about 9 o'clock Sunday morning addressed to '"Arthur Marsh " Th * inser.ger could not Hurt any one lo ? ruui" and no icportt-d to 11?-? -!- ?;?? r who wired for a b t.ter address A< nil small oAices ate closed Sunday at 10 o'clock the '"belter address" was not furnished until the opening hour it I lie afternoon. In the meantime tin mo< senger was instructed to try on Factory Hill, which lie did, and also again in th*' afternoon after the "better addreas" *hs furnished, "care Uul m Cotton Mills "' The messenger, as. was lii- custom, applied to the bosses of every tl*or of the mill as to whether such a man wotked in the mill. Every one of tin m told him that they knew no such man. The time keeper also staiid that she knew no one in the mill of the name uf Arthur Marsh. This being the case the telegram was not delivered after two or three efforts Sunday. The operator Monday again sent the messenger over to the mill to try again. So much inquiring for the man Marsh Hnallv caused one of tha hands to remark: l'Perhai? it was for Morris" and the foreman of the room and the mt-S-ienger we.it to And him and he eaid the metpage was for him. "this was about 9 o'c'ocfc Nfo i Uv morninff. and he left hnrn-ha?k f.?r V.i. bethel whe-ehe ?ri"iv< ?4 1> for?- the ?>r|4i nnd he was : 11 >w?d to see 1.1. father before ir terment. It seems tiaf Aithr.r Marsh had Ijeen Known by those with whom he pani? in contact with as Ar'lmr Men is and not Arthur Marsh His name appeared on his foreman's book as Morris, also on the office books and pay loll as Arthur Morris, He h$d aeverffi times drawn bin pay as Arthur Morris and had made no effort to correct it, IIow a jury can hold the Western Union Company responsible for the nondelivery of a message addressed to a man who is known by some other name than the one on the telegram is something beyond our comprehension, and looks mightly like giving a corporation a so dolliger just because the chance offered. We are no friend to trusts or combines, as the term is generally applied, but w< do believe iq 'foft play. We believe Marsh was about as much entitled to a verdict in this instance as Bill Jonet would be if a message intended for hin was undelivered because he was living under the name of .Tohu Smith. We, a well as the jury, feel the greatest syrn pathy for Mr. Marsh in the loss of hi father and for all that he suffered by ex posure to the cold in his ride, but w< cannot, after hearjng all the eyjdpnce see to saye ps where apyohe except btm self is to blame for the non-delivery o the message. He should have correct** tbe error as soon as he reoeived his Ore pay check in the name of Arthur Morria The attorneys for the plaintiff laic great stress upon the fact that the jury now had bad a chance to pound the riol corporation for onoe and urged then not to let the opportunity slip, and they didn't. Messrs. Stanyarne Wilson and V. ? DePaas are certainly to be congratulate upon winning a verdict in this case. ! W. H. Dooney Promoted.
