I Originally, Mr. Poucher held a louse on the park property. An amusement syndicate was formed in '1921, under the guidance of the defendant. On July 25, 1921, an agreement was drafted. It was circulated and $3500 was subscribed ranging from $50 to $500 invest- ments. llr. Poucher was 9. party to the agreement, but did not sign it. The property lease was to be trans- ferred to the syndicate when com- pleted. The park began operations and almost immediately friction arose. At the end of the season ac- counts were not satisfactory. Ar- vbitrary by Mr. Poucher was refused to transfer the stated. Suibsequently, an assignment.

The injunction proceedings grew out of objections to and dissatisfac-t tion with Manager Poucher s ser- vices by the trustees and sharehold- ers of the company, dating back to the summer or 1921. These took rho form of complaints relative to expenditures of which it was claim- ed M1`. Pmmhm- (nr Ohn nanni ........ u5uLS 111 the enterprise.
