Have II Your own way.

l.. $. Fogg, attorney for Mr. humphreys,
asked for time to take out the stone steps,
brick wall, casing, etc, which the Mayor
kindly granted. The line of the street
does not take in the whole of the hole, but
comes about ten inches from the building,
and as Mr.. Humphreys was bound to keep
all of the hole he could, he would not al
low this ten inches to be filled up, so the
authorities had "a brick wall built on the
line and the rest of the hole filled in
Register.
The foregoing from theIiegistcf's account
of the termination OF the cellar-way case,
is about as near to the truth as we would
expect the Register to get on the point
in question, and yet is a long way off. The
facts of the case are simply as follows:
As soon as the result of the suit was known
VI. Z. Grey, of counsel. with Mr.. Hum
phreys, desired to know of Mr.. Sinniekson,
attorney for the borough council, what dis
position the council wished to make of the
matter, and whether a grating over the
cellar-way would be satisfactory. This
Mr.. Sinniekson said he had no authority to
answer, but promised to communicate with
the council and report. No answer was
received until the sheriff presented himself
with his writ, and AT the same time the
mayor and councilman Lawson came othe
office of Mr.. Humphreys attorney and
stated that they were ready to ill up the
hole, and wished TO know whether Mr.,
Humphreys desired TO remove the railing
and steps, or whether they should do it
their own way, also stating at the same
time that they intended putting up q brick
wall ON che line and filling up to it. The
attorney replied that he was not able To say
whether Mr.. II. preferred to remove the
steps and railing or leave the whole bust
ness to the council, but would give an an
swer that evening, which was agreed to
by the officials, and the same evening
the reply was given that Mr.. II. would
the next day remove what lie wanted from
the hole. This WAS accordingly done and
the following day the council erected their
wall. After the wall was commenced and
after Mr.. II. had gone to Philadelphia it
was suggested to his attorney that II he
would consent to AVE the wall put mp
flush with the foundation wall Of the build
ing the council would fill mp the entire
hole. To which no answer could he given in
Mr.. H. absence and the work proceeded
to completion. The whole matter was
carried out by the council OF their pre-
viousiy arranged plan without any propo-
sition TO Mr.. Humphreys 10 consent to any
different arrangement, and with no favors
asked on either side. The council have got
what they brought suit for. If the Register
can make it appear that they are entitled
to more it Will be c%heerfuliy surrendered
