hear case-State on complaint of George o. Dan
forth vs.. Ambrose II. Wyman. The writ alleged
that Wyman practiced cruelty to anmals-stock
sheep-by tying together the legs of seven sheep
and placing them in sin foot wagon in such a
manner that their feet and heads dangled against
the spokes of the wagon. Wyman denied cruelty
and introduced testimony that he carried the sheep
in the usual manner. The Justice found probable
cause and bound Wyman to the next term of
the : j. Court There is a feud between these
families and it is probable that some bad feeling is
at the bottom of the prosecution. Judge Board
man on saturday sentenced James Clark to fifteen
days in Jail for drunkenness and disturbance. On
Monday for some offence Justice Rogers sentenced
George Wilson 10 Jail for fifteen days and Justice
Greer fined Augustus Payson - and costs for same
