End of a Lawsuit That Has Been in the Courts Twenty Years

A case of considerable importance involving several thousand dollars, in which the people of Genesee county have been interested, and which has been in the courts for twenty years, came to an end Tuesday, when the Courts of Appeals handed down a decision in favor of the defendant. The case was that of Francis E. TERRY and James M. GOODWIN against George A. MUNGER, of Camden, N. Y., formerly of Bergen. The controversy which led to the bringing of the action arose in 1870, when plaintiffs in partnership with A. D. KIPP owned a sawmill in Bergen. In that year the firm dissolved partnership and soon afterward KIPP and Palmer W. MUNGER, of Bergen, removed the sawmill machinery to North Carolina. TERRY and GOODWIN immediately brought an action against the two to recover their share in the value of the machinery, and in 1876 secured a judgment against them for $3,500. They were unable to get any satisfaction from MUNGER, and a short time afterward he was placed on the jail limits at Batavia. Judge BANGS, then county judge, soon ordered his release, however, which caused TERRY and GOODWIN, to bring an action for damages against George W. GRIFFIS, who was then sheriff, for giving MUNGER his liberty. Judgment was secured and the decision affirmed by the General Term, but reversed by the Court of Appeals. In 1886 the action just decided was brought by TERRY and GOODWIN against George A. MUNGER, a son of P. W. MUNGER, for the conversion of property, the plaintiffs alleging that he assisted in removing the machinery to North Carolina. Judge CHILDS held that the plaintiffs could not bring this action, having previously brought an action on contract in the same manner against other parties. The General Term affirmed Judge CHILD'S decision as has also now the Court of Appeals.

The funeral of Dean L., only child of Professor Charles H. and Effie STEVENS, was held yesterday at the residence of John L. STEVENS, in Clarendon, the interment taking place at the Byron Center cemetery. The venerable Elder RALLIN, aged about 85 years, conducted the service.

Three prisoners in the county jail at Batavia, named Jack GRIMES, John DAVIS and Joseph KOEHLER, laid plan to escape from jail Wednesday night. For some time all the prisoners had been given the liberty of the corridors night and day. In some way DAVIS secured a steel saw and was discovered about 9 o'clock at work on one of the outside bars, which he had nearly sawed through. He had also removed several bricks in his cell. The three men are to be tried next week, and in the meantime they will be kept locked in their cells.

An Aged Farmer of Livonia Meets With a Fatal Accident

Rockwell J. LEWIS, a substantial farmer living one mile north of Livonia Center, met with a fatal accident yesterday morning.
