Mrs. Beatty stated that John Saso and Samuel Russ had entered into an agreement with her to conduct the Dreamland Theatre on June 16, 1930, ,and to pay her $185 a month. A talkie machine was installed and cer- tain necessary changes made to the building, which is owned by R. F. Garrett, who also owns the Capitol Theatre. Not having procured Mr. Ga1`rett s consent to make such changes, an injunction was taken out by Garrett against the Saso-Russ management, also Mrs. Bcatty, in the settlement of which Mrs. Beatty was required to sign papers agreeing to put the building back in its former condition at the termination of her lease.

"he doctor said after t1`eatixig u him for three days, Mr. Seagram went to a. sanitarium at Guelph for fur- ther treatment. The witness saw the plaintiff again on his return froifn Guelph and found practically the whole leg from the knee down cover- ed with varicose veins. A large bun of veins had formed near the injured spot. On June 24th, the day before the case came to trial, thirteen iiionttis after the accident, the doctor stated, he saw the plaintiff again and fourili he was still suffering from the vari4 cosc vein condition, which he thought might have been induced or aggra- vated by the injury to the leg. Examined further, Dr. Little said` in his opinion the condition would be permanent and would get worse in- stead of better.
