Summary
Jay thinks the charge of a certain Faulkner's robbing a company no more than a breach of trust. Wants to try to recover damages on other counts. The information of a partnership should not appear in the declaration. A Mr. Bloomer retained Jay, Duane and Kempe in an action for recovery of his salary. The cause now ripe for determination and Jay not consulted in any stage of the suit. Kempe's conduct in this matter represents Jay in an insignificant point of view. Wants an explanation and thinks silence argues little spirit or little regard for reputation.
