Wp,;J, llamyvEMS- vvTiile' no
complaint is filed as yet, it is learned
that the amount of damaees asked!
wiuoe fdu.uuu, ana. tnat tne gtounas;
(of complaint are that the plaintiff re-J
ceived permanent injuries in an acci
dent to his train at Cronly, N. C , on
December 27th : last. He claims that!
he was riding in the caboose of his
train, and by the-breaking of an al-
ueged .defecUve coupling the car wan
telescoped and he was thrown vio
lently against a hot stove, his face and
one hand badly burned and an arm
broken. He was brought to the City
Hospital in Wilmington subsequenlly
and received treatment here. Mr.
Love is a young man,' and his alleged!
disability 'at comparatively an early
age is assigned by the attorneys as the
reason for the large amount asked.
The case will be returnable at the
next term of the Superior Court but!
will likely not be tried until the fol
lowing term. f
