RECORDS DISCLOSE
NEW ANGLE RECENT
PRIMROSE CASE
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE FAILED
TO LIVE UP TO TERMS OF
AGREEMENT ACCORDING TO
THE OFFICIAL COURT RECORDS
OF CASE
HUBBARDS BOUND BY 1924
AGREEMENT
Contention of Committee that Notes
Held Had Been Improperly pr Il
legally issued, Not Sustained
Believing that the interview accord
ed The Gateway on July 19, of last
month, by Attorney Gertrude M. Cald
well of Los Angeles, was correct, un
biased and neutral with respect to the
recent case tried before Judge Cecil
H. Clegg, the Primrose Mines Corpor
ation case, an article was written and
published. From several sources The
Gateway has learned that exception
has been taken to ascertain state
ments made in the article by Mrs.
Caldwell. In. discussing the case with
a local attorney it was pointed out to
The Gateway that the case was not
amicably settled by Judge Clegg but
was tried to a conclusion and a deci
sion rendered.
insinuation was made, it is said,
that the Hubbards had tried to evade
the agreement of August 26, 1924. No
reference was made in the article re
ferred to, that executive committee
failed and refused to live up to the
terms of that agreement, and that it
was the Hubbards who suffered loss
and damages thru that failure. The
facts regarding the controversy over
the agreement of August 26, 1924, ac
cording to the court records are as
follows:
On August -6, 1924, the Hubbards
had due them from the Primrose
Mines corporation, for money advanc
ed to said corporation to meet current
salaries and wages due them for ser
vices at the Primrose mine, approxi
expenses of the company, and for
mately 12,000. On August 26, 1924,
the Hubbards entered into an agree
ment with the executive committee,
to cut their claim against the Prim
rose Mines corporation down to $7,500
if the executive committee would ad
vance $6,500 to be used to finish the
installation of machinery at the mine
and get the same in operation, inis
agreement stipulated the executive
committee must place the $6,500 in
the bank of Seward by October 26,
1924. The executive committee did
not advance the $6,500 by October 26,
1924, nor did the said committee ten
der any portion of the 36.500 at that
date or at any later date.
After waiting a year for the execu
tive committee to comply with the
terms of its contract, ihe Hubbards
sued on the notes that had been given
them in payment of the money they
had advanced and loaned the Prim
rose Mines corporation, and got a
judgment for the money due them.
The case recently decided by Judge
Clegg was brought by the executive
committee to set aside this judgment.
The contention of 'the executive com
mittee that the notes held by the Hub
bards had been improperly or illegal
ly issued was not sustained by the
court. No act of the Primrose Mines
Corporation with reference to the is
suing of notes to the Hubbards was
held by the court to be improper or
illegal. The court held that the Hub
bards' were bound by the agreement
of August 26, 1924, and by virtue of
that fact, all money; due them on Aug
ust 26, 1924, (whether covered by
notes or not) was “absorbed” by the
said agreement. Notes given the Hub
bards for money loaned by them to
the Primrose Mines corporation after
August 26, 1924, were allowed in full.
In rendering his decision, the court
stated that both parties were bound
to the agreement of August 26, 1924,
and gave the executive committee un
til November 5, 1926 to make a part
payment under said agreement, and
until April 1, 1927 to pay the balance
with 8 per cent interest, stating fur
ther that until the executive commit
tee did pay over the $6,500 under its
contract of Aug. 26, 1924, no decree,
setting aside the former judgment
would issue from the court.
