Wilkinson was unable to find another suitable market for milk after June 10th and was soon forced to abandon his routes. Defendants have since hauled the milk of practically all the farmers formerly under contract with plaintiff.[1] Plaintiff alleged in his declaration that defendants’ object was to prevent him from protecting the farmers on his routes from false, fraudulent, and dishonest practices in the testing, weighing and price paid for milk. This was denied by defendants. They claimed their reason for deciding to haul the milk was that plaintiff failed to deliver the milk on time or in a proper condition, and that the action was taken to protect themselves and their customers by insuring a steady supply of good cream and wholesome milk. The testimony is in conflict on this point; but since the jury found for plaintiff, it must be assumed that they resolved this question against the defendants.
