The famous Waugh case which has gone from the probate court into the circuit court and a short time ago the plaintiff was defeated in the supreme court, is up again today in Judge Newkirks' court.

The case in brief is that when the father of the plaintiff died the latter laid claim to one-half the estate on deed signed by the father and on the other half for labor. The other heirs contested on the grounds that the deed was not signed by the mother. The mother is now also deceased and he although the supreme court decided that he deed was null and void, again brings suit for his services and labor.

Attorney Norris for the other heirs in his argument before the court this morning claimed that the plaintiff could not get he property as the supermen court had said that the deed is no good, and that the could not bring in a claim for labor as the statue of limitation barred him from that.
