SUPREME JUDICIAL COURT.

The following decisions, with rescrlpts.
were received from the law court yesterday:
FRANKLIN COUNTY.
Inhabitants of Phillips VS.. County Com
missioners of Franklin County.
ReScript by Judge Virgin. Where an APP
peal has been taken from the decision of
county commissioners in laying out a high
way, all objections to their jurisdiction or
their otherwise invalid proceedings may be
taken when the report of the committee is
offered for acceptance. II not then taken no
writ of certiorari will.be sustained.to quash
their proceedings.

need not be recorded three months at least
prior to the commencement of the mortga-
gor's proceedings In insolvency"
Exceptions sustained.
YORK COUNTY.
Albert Stirk VS.. Samuel G. Hamilton.
Rescript by Judge Walton.-ln an action
of trover against an officer for attaching the
outfit of circus company, 1t appeared that
the plaintiff claimed title to it by virtue of
two mortgages, one made in Biddeford and
the other in Boston. There being no evil
dence that, when the mortgage was made in
Biddeford, the mortgag0r resided within the
state, or that the property had been deliv-
cred to and retained by the mortgage, or
that the property was then in Biddeford:
held, that the burden of proof was on the
plaintiff to show that the property was In
Biddeferd when the mortgage was made;
that falling to do so, the court correctly ex-
cluded the mortgage from the case and the
jury were properly instructed to disregard 1t.
Held, also, that the validity of the mortgage
made in Boston is to be determined by the
lea loci c0ntrGctNS'
The presiding justice instructed the jury
that the burden Of proof was on the plain
tiff to satisfy them that, at the time of max
ing this mortgage in Boston, the mortgagor
not only resided there, but that Boston was
the place where he then principally trans
acted his business. or followed his trade or
calling; that If the plaintiff had not so sat-
isfed them, then, as against an attaching
creditor, the mortgage would not be valid.
Held, that these instructions were correct.
The court do not think the motion to set
aside the verdict, as against the weight Of
evidence, can be sustained. In fact, we do
not see how, upon the evidence, the verdict
could have been otherwise.
