ING.
Jonathan Ingalls, VS.. Inhabitants of Otisfeld. Ac-
ton the case to damages for injuries to
plaintiff and his horse from defect in highway Oct
25, 1876.
The plaintiff claims that as he wasj riding from
Spurrs Corner to Nuttings Corner in his gig, going
no faster than a smart man would walk, his horse
stepped one of bis forward feet into hole some six
inches in diameter, in the Middle Brook bridge, fell
forward and, after making three unsuccessful at
tempts regained his footing-the plaintiff in the
mean time having been thrown from his gig on to the
horse and thence to the ground striking his head
spine neck and shoulders, some three feet from the
hole in the road After regaining his feet plaintiff
followed after the horse. which had been stopped by
another man, mounted his gig and drove home. The
plaintiff claims that he received injuries to his right
shoulder, neck, head, stomach and bowels; that his
memory is very much impaired; that he is unable to
labor unable to put his coat on alone. He also al
leges that his horse inju red IN falling, and that
a splint and wind-pull resulted
The defendants admit that the way over which
plaintiff was travelling was road which the town
was bound to keep in repair They deny that there
any defect, and claim that if there was any hole
it was made by plaintiffs horse at the time of the
accident, and of whcn the defendants had no notice.
They claim that the injuries feigned; that about
year before this alleged accident he brought suit
against the same town for injuries received about
mile from the place where this accident is located ;
that that submitted to referees they award
ing him $l00 that at that hearing he claimed the
result of that former accident substantially the
injuries he now sets up the result Of this accident

AN IMPORTANT CASE SETTLED.-In Ike
United States Circuit Court the case OF Am
brose Eastman, administrator of the estate of
the late Mrs. Jane M. Bradley VS.. the New
York Life Insurance Company, to recover a
policy of $4,000 on the life of Robert Brad
ley of this city, was referred to the Hon. W.
G. Barrows and David R. Hastings, Esq. The
premiums were all paid except one, due Sep.
tember 18th, 1874. Mr.. w. F. Morrill,, the
general agent, took Bradley demand note for
this premium. Before the semi-arnual pre-
MUM became due, March A. 1875, Bradley
died, and after his decease, before the 14th, the
amount of the note was rendered to the agent
with his receipt, and delivery of the renewed
policy demanded. The plaintiffs were told that
this policy was cancelled and the note destroy
ed. Defence urged the forfeiture of the policy
by non-payment of premium, and the agents
lack of authority for his proceedings in the
case. Plaintiff claimed seasonabe payment of
premium, and that the agent merely loaned his
own funds, and was chargeable by the com
pany as accounting agent for the amount, and
that his fault should not forfeit plaintiffs
rights. The referees have allowed plaintiff
$40, 624 and costs, and the court has entered
judgment accordingly.
