Ira Sues Abner For Fifty Thousand Dollars
Ira Hodgekiss has filed a lawsuit against Abner, demanding $500 in damages because Abner and Robert killed his bull. Lum has decided to take on Abner's case as his lawyer, even though it might cost Abner all of his money to pay for the defense.
Lum and Abner was an American network radio comedy program created by Chester Lauck and Norris Goff that was produced from 1931 to 1954. Modeled on life in the small town of Waters, Arkansas, near where Lauck and Goff grew up, the show proved immensely popular. In 1936, Waters changed its name to "Pine Ridge" after the show's fictional town.
