froaboIJ II was brought to recover
dar,ages sustained by the defendant cut
TING timber on lot 7, range 3, IN the ' .e,a
of Narshfield. The timber was cut IN io'o
and 1879 II turned out from the eViienoe
,h,, the two parties owned adjoining iou
If one hundred acres each,and the line iHu
never 'been satisfactorily run out ulere
was some dispute about It. and out OF tnis
J;,nnted line arose this suit. The defeno,
ant Kinney, was formerly character wen
known in the litigation OF Washington
county. who never lacked witnesses 10
swear his case through and corrooorale
his own hard swearing. But for some
reason or other Lib didn't have his case
well in hand and gave his case away MIN.
salf admitting on the stand that he had cut
timber east of the line which he claimed TO
he The true one, and hence he was on MS
neighbor's land. This much being con-
coded, the only other point left to be de-
termined was the location OF certain
maple tree which Kinney had cut. Kinney
said it was west of the disputed line ana
the plaintiff's witnesses swore 1t was east,
and the Jury believed them, and brought
in A verdict of S25 in the plaintiffs favor.
The Developments in the course oil the
trial make it probable that other suits may
