Suit for Cutting Trees.

A suit to recover 5000 damage for cutting
limbs off two white oak trees ON the Main
street of Malaga, was tried before Justice
of Peace Watkins a few days ago. The
plaintiffs were VIM. p. Gamble, Jos. Aker.
Jr., and Oliver Gamble. the owners of the
property ON which the trees stand. The
defendants were Miller Vannote, Vim.
Richmond and others. The trees had
been cut on the I'd of April, the defendants
being at that time engaged in moving a
building 16x30 through this part of the
village. The trees are large, with wide
spreading branches. and the parts in the
way of the building were cut off by defend
ants without asking permission. The dis
tance between the trunks of the trees is
As feet, and plaintiffs claimed that if the
house had been moved narrow way instead
of wide way down the street there would
have been plenty of room. The trees were
priced for their handsome appearance,
and their mutilation was considered un-
warranted destruction. The defense was
that the trees encroached unduly on the
roadway, and that the defendants had the
right to open the way needed for the pass
age of the building. The verdict was for
the defendants.
