Defendent Gets Damage Verdict in 1925 Logan Lancaster Suit
The defendant Porter Murphy was found liable for 10600 in damages by a nine to three jury after four hours deliberation. The case stems from an August 11 1925 accident near the Falla Mill bridge on the Logan Lancaster road where Casto was struck by a Red Star bus run by Ray Nisher. The plaintiff alleged driver negligence and the death of Casto months earlier. Witness testimony suggested the pedestrian hesitated crossing the road and the bus driver tried to avoid him as a truck approached from the opposite side. The first twelve jurors were Alpha Poling Kathryn Becker Esther Bay E Price Edward Rogers Wilbur Seesheitz Walter Bowen William Wagner John W Wolfe Mike Hansel Carmen Jones Carl Graham.
