Suit for 3313 Attracts Wide City Attention
A civil suit with $385 involved draws wide interest. J. E. Millis sues Southern Railroad claiming damaged merchandise valued at $33. The railroad denies liability and says damage, if any, occurred after leaving Southern custody. After two trials in municipal court, a verdict was set aside and the case will again be argued, likely advancing to Superior and then the state Supreme Court. Thomas Turner represents Millis. Carter Dalton represents the railroad.
