Civil Actions Drag Along in Durham Superior Court
The Durham superior court civil term drags on with waning attendance after many large damages were settled. Holt versus Blackwell Tobacco Co ended with a verdict for the defendant. A divorce action by Mrs. William D. Adcock favored the plaintiff. Gilbert and Kuker versus Howard Automatic Packing Co centered on patent delays and profit sharing, with a $6,000 sale and a $2,400 claim. Judge Webb, recently indisposed, adjourned the term after several compromises and a non suit in the main suit.
