Associated Press, "Settlement is reached in popcorn plant trial"

          Attorneys announced a confidential settlement Friday just moments before a jury was set to announce a verdict in the second of a series of suits from people who claim a butter flavoring used at the popcorn factory where they worked caused disabling lung injuries. Details of the settlement were not disclosed, but the attorney for sick worker Linda Redman said he was pleased.
          Before the jury announced it had reached a verdict, counsel for Redman told Judge Jon Dermott a settlement was being discussed in the case against Bushe Boake Allen Inc., and International Flavors and Fragrances, who made a butter flavoring used at the Jasper Popcorn Co. plant.
