This second trial before Chief Justice Meredith was com pleted on Monday night And a sealed 'verdict returned. When the verdict was opened there was a doubt as to whether or not the jurors had intend- ed to convey the impression that there had been contributory negligence, The Chief Justice said that although there was :great doubt es to the exact mean ing of the Jurors' presentinent, he would give the plaintiff the benefit of the doubt and give judgment in her favor for $1,000. The company will likely appeal. -The late Rev. J. J. Rice was a well-known .minister (originally a Bible Christian) and was at one time stationed o Clinton. He and Rev. W Wade Were fellow -workers.
