Mrs. Oria Roberts Awarded $2,500 for Her Husband's Negligent Driving, April 1, 1923

Awarded Damages Against Husband

By the Associated Press

Asheville, N.C., March 31—Mrs. Oria Roberts was awarded $2,500 damages by a jury in superior court here today following the trial yesterday of a damage suit instituted by Mrs. Roberts against her husband as the result of an automobile accident in which she sustained injuries. She alleged that her husband operated the car in a negligent manner and by reason of such she was entitled to damages.

Mrs. Roberts is living happily with (her) husband and there are no marital troubles. A liability insurance company will have to pay the judgement if an appeal by the defendants to the supreme court results in an affirmation of the Madison court’s verdict.
