Our secctmcn have settled with Miss
Sarah Mcclellan of Troy. damages Sis
tanned on the highway two Years ago.
The case has been in the courts and at
the last February term was decided
against the town by default. The
question then WAS the amount of dam
are. and we think our >clectmtn were
wise in adjusting it without further aid
from the courts. Several physicians
examined the case. and the town Ii
nallv effected Il settlement by paying
SIO9:} 30 NcWport Express.
