ease was about as follows: &. A. Storer

worth of liquor which Storei had of
Haskell when he bought out the Latter :
drug business on Railroad street. We
understand that Storcr did not deny
having the liquor. hut claimed that by
Il statute law the sale WAS illegal. and
therefore he could recover its cost. The
jury found verdict tor defendant, and
nn this ground Starrr gave Haskell
his notes for the merchandise in the
drug store and this liquor was one of
the items and 10y the reading of the
notes the property was to remain Has
kelrs until paid for. The fact WIS. the
goods were never paid for. and Haskell
had to take them back And the jury
found ii verdict for Haskell on the
ground that Storer never paid him for
the liquor. Elisha May appeared for
the prosecution, and Idle and Blodgett
for defendant

nyeSdCe.
There seems to be passion among
the farmers in Ryegate for large barns.
Indeed we do not think any other
township in the county of its size, can
produce so many large and convenient
barns. We do not wish to make invid-
ious distinctions by mentioning the
names of some farmers who are the
fortunate possessOrs of fine stock barns
among which we notice that of Rob't.
Gibson, Esq, familiarity known us
Rock Robbie" His is something over
100 feet in length, with basement under
the whole. and finished on the outside
us nicely as many houses. Rob't Dixon,
Esq, Sol. Chamberlain and several 9th
ers are the owners of barns of about
the same size. Rob't. G.. Beattie is pro-
posing to remove some of his stock
barns and replace them with one some
thing over 100 feet long. We under
ordered. When completed it will add
materially to the value and appearance
of his homestead.

Mclnd"e's Falls and removed to the
farm of Mr.. Miller. his fathcr-n- law,
near Rvcgate Corner. and proposes to
engage III aglarian pursuits while the
mill is being rehuilt at the Falls.
Among other changes in our quiet
town. we note that Henry McColr has
removed from the place he has occupied
for two or three Years to the McCole
homestead. and will carry on both
farms the coming season.
