It. He found pig in Mrs. Ashford's stable
which he claimed. Mrs. Ashford claimed thu
mig also, saying that she owned the SOW and
litter of which the disputed pig was one. A
replevin was gotten out, and Constable

strong evidence was introduced by botl
parties. The jury again hung yesterday. sns
the case was to come up next Wednesday
but q compromise was finally reached, thu
costs to be divided between The parties, Mr.
Herson taking the pig.
