Wisconsin Supreme Court January 15, 1876 (Cary v. Allen)

Cole, J.

We think the publication set forth in the complaint is libelous. It is not clear upon its face that it charges the plaintiff with being connected with or implicated in the frauds and crimes committed by Howard. There is considerable ambiguity in the language used in the commencement of the article, and it is doubtful what it means, or to what it refers.
