in Mr. Strayer‘s annual report to the
church, which is printed in full:

Trial Before Judge Wheeler Will be a
Long One. as the Case Will be
Fought to the End.
George F. Lawley. the,boat builder
of Boston has been on the witness
stand in the suit against Wll' lam P. 5
Ban for a day and a half. and diirlngI
that time has been put through a most
searching examination regarding the
construction of yachts and the busi- ,
ness methods that are employed. All
Wednesday afternoon and a part of
yesterday morning he gave direct tes-
timony. but afterwards the crossex-
amination redirect and further cross-
examination took up the entire day.
There are a number of other witnesses
to be heard. so that the trial will prob-
ably be a long one.
_ in, the cross-examination the defense
attempted to bring‘out a statement
that the delay on the building of the
yacht Aquillo was due in part to an
error by a workman employed by Mr
Lawley. and that the man was dis.
charged. This was denied by Mr. Law-
ley, who stated that the man was not
discharged until some weeks after the
alleged error. Mr. Lawley stated that
the plans which were furnished him
showed approximate and incorrect
lines. .
There was a question whether the
material for the boat was ordered from
the approximate plans. or whether Mr
Lawley waited until he received the
exact plans. Mr. Lawlsy did not re-
member. but was under the impreasloh
that he waited for the exact p‘ans.
in regard to lengthening the boat
from 114 to llil test. he said the extra
work took more time and entailed ex-
tra~cost. The cabs was continueda

Mr. Egbert spoke of the memorial

church. The designs are now being

it is probable one of the handsomest

with the children of these classes was
delightful. There was very Iittle.of
