1Opinion of the CourtJustice Bristow
This cause arrives here from the Appellate Court of the First District as a result of our allowance of a petition for leave to appeal. The plaintiff, the owner of the Aurora Downs race track located at Aurora, instituted his action in equity praying for an accounting of monies due him on a lease of his racing premises with the defendant.
