Answer and Counter Claim in Bottego Case File
Elizabeth Biggerstaff files an answer and counter claim in district court against Mary E. Reilly for $340, alleging breach of a verbal six month Viavi medicine sales contract. She claims damages of $540 from being blocked from starting work June 1 to December 1, and asserts Pemberton Maury as counsel. Also, John J. Ferrell and others deny the balance payment in a separate real estate suit while admitting $1,200 was paid and no prior demand existed. An order to show cause on Lulu F. Largey’s lease of four mining claims is set for January 14 in Department No 1.
