relative to compensation to owners of lands
for right of-way. Among the cases settled
are those of Nm. Ramage, the Peck heirs
and Vincent Mitchell. The right through the
farms OF the heirs of J. J. Robson, which
will require about four acres. of the heirs of
John Robson y acres, John Denham acres,
John Patterson LeaFly two acres, Matthew
Nichols heirs is acres, and OF Rev. Samuel
Boyd acres, in all about 20 acres being still
in dispute-a jury was impaneled by the Pro-
bate Court, on Monday, and accompanied by
Superintendent W. ". Card, Engineer Kin
nev. Judge J. W. Tyler of Cleveland, togeth'
er with the attorneys of the parties. on Tues
dav they visited the various p9ints on the line
in dispute, for the purpose OF ascertaining the
amount OF damage sustained by the several
parties. With the question of the damages
sustained by the several parties we have moth
ing to do; this much we can say, however,
that Superintendent Card and the Company
which he represents, so far as our knowledge
goes, have shown Il willingness to deal justly
and fairly with all parties with whom they
have business Transactions.
