Verdict for $3000 for Slander

The biggest verdict ever given in a slander case in Wright county was awarded G.M. MANNING in his suit against B.V. MEADE, when plaintiff was given $3000. The largest amount previous to this verdict, we are told, was $375. Both parties live near Goldfield and are neighbors. MEADE was accused of taking corn belonging to MANNING. It is expected that the case will be appealed.
