Hon. S. M. Wilson,
Counsel,
Lexington, Ky.
Dear Sir:
Referring to your letter of July 4, enclosing
a copy of the petition, in the case of Eli Couch v. L.
& N., Perry Quarterly Court, which is a suit telecover
$45.00 as the value of a box of household goods shipped
to the plaintiff, at Typo, Kentucky, from Lexington, Kena
tucky:
file seesggfgfiéfhri’é‘fiafifiiEfiryofirviiiitsgéafii‘aigtflé §8§e£i§ '
leged to have been lost in transit was checked "over" at
Lexington, afterwards forwarded to Typo, and delivery ac—
cepted. However, it is claimed that part oi‘the contents
of the box was stolen, and there is some evidence to es—
tablish the fact that the box was tampered with while in
our custody. I think Messrs. Morgan & Nuckole should be
instructed to endeavor to learn the real extent or‘plain»
tiff's loss, and then settle the case on that basis.
Yours truly,
W4: Mar/g
sisten. District Attorney.

found as we have it, at eerington, and returned to him at ~3po.
He claims that When he received the box there was a pair of
blankets, one bed quilt and a smoothing iron, gone fnzm the
box. 1e have seen the agent at Jypo. fie said that he delivered
the box to this man, but he did not know whether there was
anything zone or not; that the claim was made that there were
some thioge gone out of the box when it was flelivered. Couch
was in our office on yesterday and agreed to accept five i01-
lere and the defendant to pay the court eoets. We recommend
that this settlement be made because he will swear that these
goods were short and we will have no way to contradict him.

this.
