Letters Sent to Dr. R.B. Moore, December 13, 1927

December 13th,1927. Dr. R. B. Hoore, Dean of Science, Purdue University, Lafayette, Indiana. Dear Dr. Mooro: Our attorneys advise that at a preliminary hearing before the Vice Chancellor in Newark yesterday, relative to the evidence admissible at our hearing on January 12th, it 1s the Vice Chancellor's opinion that it will not be necessary to have any out of tom witnesses present on that date. It seems that there is a point at law to be settled in this case before the evidence will be taken, and the Vice Chancellor's opinion is that January 18th, will be devoted to this phase of the cases. The Vice Chancellor has set aside only one day in January, and in the event that the cases are continued in the Court of Equity it probably will be a matter of months before the expert testimoney will be required. As you realize the courts act at their own pleasure in these matters, and as soon as we have anything definite, when evidence such as you can give is to be taken we will communi- cate with you. In the meantime should you be in this Oity I trust that you will dive us a call. With kind I am Cordially yours, Vice President. HH Barker : RH
