Credit to wrong depositor in bank suit at Butte
W A Clark & Bro filed suit in district court against saloon keeper T P Fitzmaurice to recover 900 misdrawn from his account after a deposit credited to him was drawn. The complaint notes a May 8 deposit by John Finnen and a May balance of 143.14 followed by Fitzmaurice withdrawing it all. An attachment was levied on Clark property, and city officials faced litigation over street titles. Spriggs stood as a $20,000 surety for a bond of 257000, and estate appraisers valued the assets at 11,198.55 including cash, stock, and real estate. Frances H. Fitzmaurice died July 22 in Butte, with daughter Mrs Watt as heir. Chancellor O Donnell moved law offices to room 55 in the Hirbour block.
