One man wanted to give Mr. Finnegan $5.000 as the amount, Don Finnegan would have earned from the age of 15, until he would have reached his mojority. But finally a compromise verdict of $1,000 was reached.

Attorney Butterfield was asked, if the railroad company intends to appeal the case. ''I do not Know what will be done, " said he", Mr. Russel determines hose matters, of course $1000 is not much, but I do not think the railroad company will pay it without an appeal.'
