TO LEAVE IT TO ARBITRATION

Father and Son to Settle Their Differences

OUTSIDE THE COURTS

Each Had Secured an Injunction Against the Other-Took Friends' Advice

The case of William H. Bishop, father, vs. William S. Bishop, son, will be settled by arbitration instead of dragging their differences through the courts. The parties live in Augusta. The father leased his farm to the son and this lease terminates in April. He thought the son was selling off the live stock at too rapid a rate and secured an injunction restraining him from doing anything further in this line.

The son came back at him with a counter injunction enjoining the father from molesting in any way the sum of $925 which was the insurance money collected on the dwelling house. The son wanted his interest in this money determined by the court.

Monday was the date set for hearing these injunctions and both parties came prepared to fight it out but upon the advice of friends they decided to leave the entire matter to three arbitrators and took the car for Ypsilanti in a quite friendly mood.
