CIVIL CASES TRIED.
While there have been but two trials OF
civil cases, these trials have disposed OF
four cases. Nos. 1904 and 1907, being
practically the same case but brought I'M
der the different names because OF divi-
sion OF the town, WERE by mutual consent,
decided by he trial OF one. Cases Nos.
| 1891 and 1892 We're tried together.
The first case tried was that of Winter
Iiarbor V. Rock port. This was an action
brought to recover damages for support
OF Mrs. Christine f. Perry, an insane
pauper. Mrs Perry's early home was in
Franklin and Gou.dsboro. She was
married in Massac husetts and lived there
until the death OF her husband three
years ago, when she returned to Goulds
boro, and subsequently became insane
and Vas supported by the town. Mrs.
Perry's husband formerly lived in Rock
port and Rockland; plaintiff claimed the
term OF residence i'll Rockport had been
long enough to establish settlement. The
law recognizes the husbands settlement as
that OF the wife.
The jury returned verdict for deten-
dants. The sum involved in the two
cases determined by this trial was about
800
