Questioned Doctor Nickerson in Indian Grave case
Dr L H A Nickerson faced a long cross examination in county court by attorney John E Inghram representing landowners in the Indian Grave Drainage district. Judge Fred Wolfe ruled that commissioners are public officers with limited inquiry unless fraud or misopportunity is shown, allowing Nickerson to be questioned on whether he worked on days but not how much work was done each day. The defense wins a vital pre Sept 1 1917 contract ruling. The trial began Wednesday and may extend for days before Wolfe’s decision.
