Cross examined said he never
made any arrangement with Dexter
or Walker in relation to the road in
question. He had not been in this
section of the town for some years
and had no personal knowledge of
this road.
jerry Marsten, another selectman,
gave similar testimony as to division
of case of highways in winter
Chas. Kimball testified that he was
highway surveyor in this district; he
broke the roads in the first part of the
winter, but from Jan. 1, to March 1,
1898 he hired Willard G. Trip to do
it; he opened the road in the
highway north of Walkers on
April II, 1898. This road had
been impossible for several
weeks; was over the road in ques-
ton, through field of Walker, on Apr.
s, 1898; don't think there was much
bare ground, except between house
and barn Of Walker. He rolled road
through that field where Tripp had
rolled it during the winter.
Charles Dexter testified that he as
sisted Trip in care of roads in dis
trict No. 2; had interview with Sc
lectman Lewis, and afterward told
Trip what Lewis said about br eak-
ing roads through fields where ex-
pense for damage would be less than
keeping highways open. When roll
ing road near Walkers, with Trip,
he stopped at Walkers house; "Trip
went into barn while II sat on roller
and held team. Trip came from barn
saying it was all right, and we started
to roll through Walkers field. Walk
er called to US and said, troll on left
side Of bushes I have set up through
my field" We did so. The main road
was badly drifted and could have been
broken only by good deal of SHOW
cling. Or cross examination, witness
said he was over the road on April 8,
through Walkers field; it was wet
day and there were some bare places
in the road across the field.
Willard Q. Trip said he hired to
Mr.. kimball, the surveyor, to keep
road open from Jan. 2 till March l.
Charles Dexter helped me, furnish
ing one span of horses. Dexter told
me of the conversation with LIE wis.
When he stopped with roller,at Walk
er's, I saw Walker in the barn and
asked him if he had any objection to
our IOdO Ills uGlO. ne
said he didn't know as he had, only he
didn't want his grass hurt. We rolled
through his field where he pointed out.
Cross examined, he said he did not
remember having any conversation
with Walker about buying a calf; he
stopped to inquire about going though
the field.
At coming in of court on Friday
morning there was change in pro-
ceedings not fully known to the pub
lie, which seemed to block further
progress of the trial After consid-
cradle consultation between counsel

tinuance, which was granite d by the
Judge on conditions that the 0eft. pay

1t is almost a wonder that the race

There has been an absolute rev.

Instead of undermining the vital
forces by cupping and bleeding,
the vitality is now sustained in

tearing down we seek to build up.
Instead of increasing misery We
seek to create happiness.
