our Lord. The tenters (as before) pro-
pose taking care of the people free Of
charge. Nothing sold on the ground

provisions, aud that he probably could
get in the neighboThood nearyr than from
home

4 Suit Brought Against Darius Alden
to Recover His Assessments.

=. BosroN, Oct. 7.
Darius Alden of Augusta, Me-, was one of
the persons who held 4S shares of stock in
the Pacific National Bank at the time of its
failure. L. NJ. Price, receiver, brought the
suit in the U. S. circuit court in this city
against Alden to recover his assessment liza
bility as stockholder. Alden today filed
bill in equity against Price to enjoin him
from prosecuting the suit against him. Alden
alleges that on Feb. IL, 1881, in accordance
with the request and statements of Bank
Examiner Needham, he would be released
from all further liability; tina, he paid into
said bank 100 per cent. on the value of his
stock, and that in law and equity the same
should be regarded as full satisfaction of his
liability in the matter.
