Mr.. I. o. BAILEY, Of the Pavilion, IL winning
new laurels this season by the perfect order in
which he has put the road to Mount Hunger. II
IL now n comparatively easy task to reach the
summit and one which may be undertaken with
out fear by any one. The barn injured by the
SHOWS Of last Winter has been thoroughly re-

those who desire to stable and feed their horses
Lovers Of fine mountain scenery will be well re-
paid for visiting this romantic spot, the view
from which is as charming as any in New Eng
land. Tourists from Montpelier or elsewhere
visiting Mount Hunger would do well to call at
the Washington House, in Middlesex, where they
will be well entertained. Good teams may be
procured at any time and every facility will be
afforded toward making their stay pleasant and
profitable.
THE report Of the question last week, discussed
at the Law Students Debating Society before T. ).
Deavitt, as made by the attorneys for the defend
ant, perhaps to relieve sore spot, was erroneous
The statement Of the points claimed by Goodrich
and Dwinell, attorneys for defendant, were sub
stantially correct but the statement Of the points
claimed by Bisbee attorney for plaintiff were sub
stantially false The plaintiff first claimed that
not within 10 n Of frnu Ia
and, that although the promisor received no
benefit, the promisee received an injury, result
ing from non-performance Of the contract, which
was sufficient consideration for note; and that II
the case did come within the statute of frauds,
the moral obligation, accompanied with the ex-
press promise to pay, was sufficient. The court
sustained both points and thereupon rendered
judgment for plaintiff
