Windsor County Court.
June Term. 1895.

Moses j. Townsend VS.. Frank Tatro
This is a sequel to a state case that was
tried at the December term. 1t seems that
these two parties, who resided in the To-
cality of Nneveh, have had bad feelings
for some time and Frank has been man
of war from his youth up. "Mose" want.
ed to get some sand and so he got him to
the shores OF Patch pond in the town Of
Mount Holly. This was in the month OF
September, 1885, Moses had cart and to
it were hitched pair OF O. 10 steers. Now
when Moses had arrived at the sandy
beach OF the pond he found Frank, who
was chuck full OF sand and with a few
emphatic words he ordered Moses to 'get
out OF thar, blanky blank you" Moses
didn't sget;" he raised his whip to defend
himself, whereupon frank rushed in to
close quarters, as he claimed to defend
himself from the whip in the hand OF the
plaintiff According to the story OF the
latter, he was belabored by Tatro and
knocked down into the bush, or knocked
back and, catching his foot on rock, fell
into the bush. Tatro took advantage Of
this position OF bis adversary to pound
him about the legs with club, and as
soon as Moses could wiggle over onto his
stomach, he wiggled out OF the bush away
from Frank and his club. The defendant
uenleu making any SUCH HSSault anu Halu
that the place where the sand was taken
from belonged to him and he did not want
Townsend to take sand from there and So
told him to depart and, as he refused to
depart, the defendant merely intended to
use sufficient force to make him go away.
He was evidently successful in this for
Townsend and his team beat hot retreat.
The jury returned verdict for the plain
tiff for $50 damages and costs. s. q. Sar-
geant and F. G. Southgate for plaintiff; 8.

In the case Of state vs.. Alfred Carpenter
for larceny, the jury were OF the opinion
that Carpenter picked up the $50 and did
not know whose it was, so they returned
q verdict OF "not guilty, ''much to the sur

evidence.
