SUPREME JUDICIAL COURT
BEFORE JUDGE VIRGIN.

THURsDAY.-William Fl. Bigelow VS.. The
Western Assurance Company Of Canada.
This action, which has been on trial all OF
this week. was submitted to the jury last
evening, with instructions for the jury to
seal up their verdict and report this morning.
issued by the Company upon the property OF
the plaintiff situated In the barn upon the
Brown farm, which was formerly the Deer
ing poor farm, in the town Of Deering.
A fire occurred upon the tenth day OF No
vember of last year at about four O'Clock in
the afternoon, and the barn and its contents
were wholly destroyed. The plaintiff
claimed to recover 500 upon seven horses
which were burned and upon sets Of double
wheels, sleds. jigger. phaeton, buggies.
erty to the amount of s.. $40.
The defendants claimed that the fire was
not accidental, and that the value
placed upon the various articles de-
stroyed was excessive and fraudulent.
A large number of witnesses were called by
both parties. who testified as to the value
and condition of the property. The plain
tiffs witnesses testified that there were no
horses worth less than 800 apiece. The de-
PENDANTS witnesses fixed the value Of all ex-
cepting one Of the horses from $25to $50, and
also testified that the other personal proper
ty was old. and much of 1t Of no value, and a
large portion Of 1t had been lying about the
premises for long period as useless, until 1t
was all gathered up and put into the barn
the summer previous to the fire.
The jury were instructed by the Court that
II a fraudulent and excessive valuation had
been put upon the property In the proofs of
loss for the purpose of fraudulently recover
lug any thing in excess of its fair cash value.
according to the terms of the policy and the
law OF the state. the plaintiff would not be
entitled to recover anything in this action,
as fraud vitiates all contracts.
The jury returned verdict this morning
for the defendants.
John j. Perry and d. A. Meaher,

Their Golden wedding.

October 10th, 184l, Captain Thomas Day Of
Phipsburg and Miss Hannah Bibber of Port
land, were married In this city. After the
lapse of fifty years. on Monday evening, the
couple at their home in East Brunswick.
with children, grandchildren and scores Of
warm friends, observed the anniversary day.
Captain Day has passed more than thirty
years of his life upon the sea, chiefly in the
North Atlantic and East Indian trade. Dur
ing all that time he escaped being wrecked
and never had an accident. He was nine
years In the United States Coast Survey and
eleven years keeper of Seguin Light. He
now lives on his farm In Brunswick, the
house being one hundred and twenty years
old. The years have rested lightly on the
captain, and Mrs. Days hair is not yet sill
vered. Is this owing to the fact that she
was married at the age of fifteen? Only one
person, Mrs. Days sister, who witnessed the
marriage ceremony was present at the gold
en- wedding. A poem written by Mrs. Sarah
A. Small of Parker's Head, was read by
Rev. George E. Tufts. who in a speech at the
close congratulated in behalf of the compa-
ny, the bride and groom on the good fortune
that has smiled on them. The captain re-
sponded, thanking the company for their
good wishes, and for the numerous presents
with which the table in the adjoining room
was laden.
