Damages Suits Filed In Martin Circuit Court
The Martin circuit court opens next Monday with Judge Ogden presiding. Three damage suits loom large, including the widow Mary E. Divin seeking $10,000 for her husband James A. Divin’s 1916 death after intoxication caused by others at Loogootee. Other suits target the B&O and Southwestern railways for injuries and property losses in Shoals and Loogootee, detailing lengthy claims and prior waivers. The strike settlement with the Southwestern system ends a costly machinists’ walkout, with many workers to return by degrees and conditions on reemployment and benefits.
