JULY SESSION FOR WESTERN DISTRICT.
The July law term commenced its session in this
city yesterday morning. Present, Chief Justice APP
pletoD, and Associate Justices Walton, Barrows,
Virgin, Peters and Libbey. According to custom,
two of the eight Justices absent from each of the
three sessions. Justices Dckerson and Danforth,
having attended the Augusta and Bangor terms, are
absent from the Portland term.
The Court opened at 10, A. NJ, Rev. Mr.. Bieknell
officiating as chaplain. In the absence of the Chief
Justice Mr.. Justice Walton, the senior associate pre-
sided at the forenoon session, and called the docket
of two counties-Franklin and Oxford, Two cases
were argued in the former county and case in the
latter In the afternoon Chief Justice Appleton pre-
sided. and called Androscoggin. Mr.. Bolster and
Mr.. Swan present, but their res did not
respond. Another case was argued from franklin,
and the Court adjourned over.
Androscoggn is expected to be in order Wednesday
and York Thursday.
The following cases were argued:
FRANKLIN COUNTY.
No. 15.-Holly VS.. Young. Forcble entry and de-
tainer. The plaintiff offered to prove that the rent
not promptly paid and that the lease was there
by forfeited; but the Judge excluded the evidence
The verdict was for the defendant; and the plaintiff
Slegea exceptions. Whitcomb argued for plaintlh +;
Sc. Belcher for defendant.
No. l6.-Hannaford VS.. Seares. Assumpsit in this
note:
$3.50. Pennington, March 0, 1875. Eight months
after date promise to pay to the order of Aaron
Hannaford six hundred and fifty dollars at Franklin
County Savings Bank, value received with interest
at eight per cent. (SignedD C. f. PACKARD"
Endorsed
"Sureties - E. Searles, JOSIAH Gordon Joseph
Gould, Warren Weeks"
Suoh note being joint, and several of the persons
signing Oh the back being joint promlssors for certain
good reasons the suit was brought against one alone
who defended on the ground that no demand at The
bank was made before suit was brought. Inc jus
tice ruled that no demand was necessary, anu IN
defendant excepted. -. ,,,;o,
whitcomb argued that, under the statute W., WIZ u
reads 'In an action on promissory note psyaple a.
place certain, either on demand, or on demand az
or after time specified therein, the plaintif snan
not recover unless he proves demand made al tnt
place of payment prior to the commencement OF Tue
SUIT demand should be alleged and proved. True
the note does not read, "on demand" after eigh
months, bnt that is the legal effect of such note.
s. c. Belcher, for the plaintiff, argued that thu
statute, being in derogation of the common law
must be construed strictly; that note without tht
words ION demand' was not within the statute.
No. 26-Dolbier vs.. Insurance Company Arguet
by Whitcomb for plaintiff, and S. G. Belcher for tn
defendant.

The address of the committee on be-
half of Boise county for the building
of wagon road from Banner to At
lanta publish their address to the citi-
zens of Ada, Alturas and Boise coun-
ties in this issue 1t now behooves
every man who has the interests Of
the country at heart to extend all the
assistance in his power. The new
road would hasten the development of
one of the richest mining districts on
the Pacific coast, and as a natural con-
sequence there would be a large
amount of travel through Ada and
Boise counties. The people of Boise
City and valley, we hope. will consid'
er their own interests and help US
build free road to Atlanta.
