Settled $5,000 Suit By Arbitration

SETTLED $5,000 SUIT BY ARBITRATION

The $5,000 law suit pending against Adam Hornung brought by Michael O'Hara for injuries sustained two years ago, has been settled for the little sum of twenty-five dollars. It will be remembered that during the summer of 1901 Mr. Hornung had in front of his place, a small sample gasoline engine, and as Mr. O'Hara was passing there his horse took fright and ran a short distance down the street throwing Michael out, from which fall he sustained a slight injury and he brought suit against Mr. Hornung for $5,000 and the matter has been hanging fire ever since until Tuesday when O'Hara went to Hornung and seemed anxious to settle. Hornung, who did not care to spend a week or more lawing proposed to leave the trouble to three disinterested men and each to abide their decision.  To this O'Hara agreed and c. Burkhardt, G. C. Townsend and W. F. Nissle, who were chosen to decide the matter, after hearing the story decided that $25 would be an ample sum for the injury sustained, and thus the suit is ended. --Saline Observer.
