tered into contract with Donovan by
which he was to sink well on Donovan's
stock farm, south OF the city, and unless ne
secured 1900 gallons OF water per day be

he obtained more water than the specified
amount then he should have sl.75 for every
100 gallons to the full amount OF which the
we'll was capable of supplying in twenty
