Local intelligence: Fischer, admr. vs. Bergson. It will be seen by reference to our legal intelligence, that the suit of Fischer, admr. vs. Bergson et. al. has been decided in favor of the plaintiff. This case having excited a very general interest in Anaheim, we presume that a slight outline of the causes which led to the suit, will not prove uninteresting. About twelve years ago, Conrad Kuchel purchased from the Anaheim Vineyard Association, a vineyard of twenty acres known as lot D. 3., and in order to make the payments thereon, he borrowed from this Bergson (his son-in-law), six meetings of Church Trustees. The trustees of the Presbyterian church held a meeting last Sunday, for the purpose of taking some decisive steps towards the building of a church. The offer of Messrs. Heimann and George to donate two building lots [112 x 120] was accepted. It was also agreed to purchase an adjoining lot from Mr. J. Keller [30 x 120] which he had generously offered at a price much below its market value. The trustees passed the following resolutions: Resolved, That the thanks of the Presbyterian church and congregation are hereby tendered to Messrs. Heimann and George and Mr. J. Keller, for their kindness and liberality in donating lots on which to build a church. Resolved, That the thanks of the Presbyterian church and congregation are hereby tendered to Mr. Chas. Geddes of San Francisco, for the plans and specifications for the church building, prepared by him, and given gratuitously. The board of trustees are Messrs. Pierce, Higgins, Bancroft, Hunter, Tompkins and Mrs. P. C. McKenzie. The gentleman composing the building committee are J. B. Pierce, W. M. Higgins and F. S. Miles. The estimated cost of the building, according to the plan and specifications adopted by the trustees, will be about three thousand dollars. Two thousand dollars have already been subscribed, and the Finance Committee will at once proceed to canvass the city for the one thousand dollars necessary to About twelve years ago, Conrad Kuchel purchased from the Anaheim Vineyard Association, a vineyard of twenty acres known as lot D. 3., and in order to make the payments thereon, he borrowed from this Bergson (his son-in-law) six hundred dollars, and being a man of an open, generous, unsuspecting nature, and confiding in the integrity and honor (!) of Bergson, gave him a deed of one half of the vineyard lot, as a security for the payment of the money borrowed. The heavy expense attending the care of a young non-productive vineyard, compelled Mr. Kuchel, at various times, to have recourse to this Bergson for small sums of money, and again confiding in his honor (!) gave him a deed for the remaining half of the lot, as a security for the payment of the small sums advanced from time to time. During all the years elapsing between these transactions and the death of Mr. Kuchel, which occurred over two years ago, the latter remained in undisputed possession of the property, and the first intimation that the friends of the widow and family had, that he meant to claim exclusive ownership of the vineyard, was when he, in the capacity of administrator, totally ignored the existence of any real estate in the list of property which he gave to the appraisers for valuation. On being allowed to resign his administratorship, Mr. John Fischer was appointed, and a suit was immediately commenced in the District Court, to compel the said Bergson to account for all monies received by him for rents, sales of lots, etc., on the property in question. The plaintiff also claimed that the deeds heretofore mentioned were not bonafide, but merely given as mortgages. Bergson, in his defense, claimed that the deeds were bonafide, and not given as mortgages; and further, that no agreement—either written or verbal—had ever existed between Mr. Kuchel and New Ads.—We would call attention to the advertisement of Mr. Henry Slotterbek, to be found in another column. We bespeak for him the patronage of our citizens, not only because he is a good workman, but because he advertises in their local paper, a fact which should have, and has, a great influence with the residents of Anaheim in determining to whom they will give their patronage. By referring to the advertisement of J. W. Clark, it will be seen that he negotiates loans on real estate security. The advertisement of our friend Macy will be found in this issue is expecting a large stock of material, the arrival of which will be duly chronicled in the advertising columns of the Californian. Read the advertisement of Crowther & Johnson, and then get your horse shod. See the notice of dissolution of co-partnership, between A. Langenberger and B. Dreyfus. Mixed.—Newspapers get things mixed sometimes. The account of the accident to Mr. Brommermann, is going the rounds of the Press. In a San Francisco paper we find it thusly; Mr. L. Mesmer late proprietor of the U. S. Hotel in Los Angeles, was shot and mortally wounded, on the 20th. The Ventura Signal says: Henry Brommermann, late proprietor of the U. S. Hotel in Los Angeles, accidentally shot and without Stairs. Elevator, 429 M Francisco. Seeds.—Alfa fresh garden s Steinhart & Broc Copies of the NIAN in single v Clark's.

The plaintiff also claimed that the deeds heretofore mentioned were not bona fide, but merely given as mortgages. Bergson, in his defense, claimed that the deeds were bona fide, and not given as mortgages; and, further, that no agreement—either written or verbal—had ever existed between Mr. Kuchel and himself, wherein he (Bergson) agreed to re-convey to Kuchel the vineyard, on the payment of the monkeys due him. This he testified to in the most positive manner, and it must have been a sad shock to his "pheelinks" when counsel for plaintiff produced just such an agreement as the one described, bearing his signature the genuineness of which he was forced to admit. To put the most charitable construction on this Letho-like forgetfulness, this sudden loss of memory, we must ascribe it to the habits of the man. "Wine stealeth away the brains"—what may not whisky do with the memory? In view of the facts herein stated, and others equally as strong, and having as important a bearing on the case, but which lack of space prevents us from enumerating, the verdict of the jury cannot be wondered at. The good people of Anaheim were deeply interested in the result of the suit, and their love of justice, truth and honesty, caused them to hail with approbation this most righteous verdict.
