This society has bad vary great swore, sad at no time has
it been more p neperooe than now. These local moieties
have spread all over England, which is undoubtedly
proof of their popularity and somas. The principle upon
which local associations of this hied are founded is of an
inestimable character. The local sentinmeet in man is the

sentiments, and although societies like this should not only
be maintained, but multiplied, still, like all other good

county, I would increase the area of oompetation upon all

out this view, that the Royal Backiagliamshire Agricultural

of Carman Pleas, sad be therefore requested tbe barrister
to take a careful Detect the evidence.

The Barrister, after some fortbe7direweioo, said be could
really have no doubt about this came himself. Looking at
the clause in the deed, be said it appeared to his mind con-
clusive that the parties had subscribed moeey to buy property
in which they all bed an equal ielvrees. It was conveyed

Nothing, he thought, could be wronger in favour of those
votes than the owe of Baxter and Newman. He did not
think, however, that Bennett and Blain, a recently decided
case, at all affected this, the boidieg being of a different
character. He should, therefore, retain the claims.
Claims retained acoordiegly.
Mr. Ashford hoped the barrister would award him costa,
seolos that he and the other claimant. had been troubled
to attend personally at the court shout twenty times to
prove their clairoa.
The Barrister declined to grant costa, on the ground that
the recent caw of Bennett and Blain must have occasioned
reasonable doubt es the point, although to his mind it did
not apply.
The
