Dickie v. Adams

This is an action brought against the representatives of Serena D. Turell, deceased, to recover the sum of $1,537.02, and interest from the 2d day of October, 1882. This fund represents two deposits, amounting to $1,400, and the interest thereon $137.02, alleged to have been withdrawn by the deceased from the Irving Savings Institution, located at 96 Warren street, Hew York.

On the trial a jury was waived, and the action was tried before the court.
