2. Defendant Rosemary Grant is an adult individual with an address at 342 Walton
Street, Borough of Lemoyne, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania (hereinafter referred to as
"Defendant").
3. Beginning on or about November 25, 1996, and continuing on a regular basis until
November 17, 1997, defendant purchased goods and merchandise (in the nature of ladies'
wearing apparel) from plaintiff, with a promise to pay plaintiff for said goods.
4. During the time of defendant's purchases, plaintiff maintained books of account,
keeping an accurate and running account of all debits and credits for the sale of goods and
merchandise to the defendant.
5. Set forth below is a listing of goods and merchandise sold to defendant by
plaintiff on the promise that defendant would pay to plaintiff the sums due and owing:
A. Belts, blouses, sweaters, pants, on November 25, 1996, for a total of $840.00. See

requesting payment for goods and merchandise.
8. The statements of account have been disregarded and defendant has failed to pay
the unpaid principal, or the unpaid and accrued finance charges. As of April 30, 2001,

maintain an unpaid balance due to plaintiff. The policy is attached hereto as Exhibit K.
9. There are no conditions precedent to the bringing of this action.
WHEREFORE, plaintiff demands judgment against defendant for $10,071.37, with costs
and interest as it continues to accrue since the April 30, 2001 statement.
