TUESDAY, Harriet L. Stevens vs. The Rollins
ford Savings Bank. Action of Dover. March 26,
1876, defendants loaned George NJ. Stevens $3.50,
taking mortgage of Stevens premises on Elm
street, Portland, signed by Stevens and his wife, this
plaintiff. July SO, 1872, Stevens gave quit claim
deed, covering the same premises to The defendants
Stevens died April 5, 1873. Plaintiff commenced this
action December 20, 1877, alleging that her signature
to the mortgage was obtained through fear of bodily
violence which had been threatened by her husband
IN case she did not sign, which fact was known to
George R. Davis who negotiated the loan for the de-
PENDANTS.
The defendants deny that her signature was OBJ
tanned under duess but claim that if it was so OBJ
tained her subsequent acts and silence were such as
to lead the bank to believe it to be her voluntary sig
nature, and to put them in posi- ton which they
would not have taken had they known OF this caiu
and that she is therefore, now precluded from set

DEERING.
Great Improvement of the Forest Home
Property.

This fine property comprising by far the
highest and most beautiful part OF Gentle
DeeriDg, has been laid out BY an engineer into
streets, two of which will be opened this season,
and lots offered for sale. The whole plan con-
templates, in the future, the laying out avenues
running through from the Plains road to the
road to MorriIl's Corner, parallel to P easant
street, with a cross street from Pleasant street
intersecting them. 1t is not intended to carry
the first avenue through, nor to open these
avenues faster than demanded for building
purposes. They will b, broad, with green
plots between the sidewalk and roadway, with
two rows of trees on each side, lik5 State
street 10 Portland, aud will ord the most de- s
lightfnl spots for rural dwellings in this vicini-
ty, as many large trees will be left on the lots.
Several lots have already been spoken for, and,
1t is expected that the lots on the two avenues
to be opened this year will bs rapidly taken up.
They are to bs placed at a moderate price,
every other lot being sold, which will increase
the value of tho adjoining lot at once The
owner proposes to give this advantage to the
purchaser of lots, by giving him the option of
purchasing these adjoining lots at the same
price he has already paid. Prominent real es-
tate men in the town think, that these lots will
rapidly increase 10 value, as they lie on the
line of the Ho 50 Railroad, and in close
proximity to the schools, seminary and
churches, where a comparatively small
area of land can be had suitable for frst class
residences. In fact, the small increase of two
or three hundred families to this town would
absorb all the eligible building land in this,
the central and always to be most desirable
portion of the town. Deering is growing with
amazing rapdity for an eastern town, and
investors are taking advantage of this growth.
For investments. merely, these lots must prove
to those who purchase, very advantageous, as
they surpass anything that can be placed in
the market hereafter. as-ass The proprie-
tor, Mr.. ]. P. Baxter. Of Portland, intends, it
is understood. to put sewers in the several
avenues as they are laid out, which will make
the lots still more desirable.
