EXCITEMENT CASE HEARD.
County Court Considering Action Of
CIOgstOn vs.. Meigs,

Only three witnesses were on the
stand in the case of Joseph d. Clog
ston VS. Edwin S. Meigs, for eject
ment Tuesday, part of the afternoon
being spent on the disputed ground
by the jury. A divorce was granted
to Nellie S. Tobin,o Waterbury, from
her husband, Patrick T. Tobin, for
non-support
Court convened at 8 o'clock yester-
day morning. after an adjournment
last Saturday noon. with the Clogston
VS.. Meigs case before the jury. This
case was started Saturday morning
with the plaintiff on the stand, but as
he had not finished his testimony at
that time. he was called again yester-
day He told of certain marks by
which he could tell the boundary of
his land These marks are now for
the most part obliterated, with the
exception. possibly. of an old stone
WALL which, however, another wit
ness later declared has since been
torn down and a new wall built. The
other distinguishing line by which the
plaintiff claims that he could tell his
land by was an old apple tree which
blew down.
The next witness on the stand was
son Of the plaintiff, who testified tC
the boundaries of the place when he
lived there with his parents. His
evidence was substantially that of the
older Ciogston. The jury were theT
taken TO view the disputed land by
Sheriff Tracy and Deputy Sheriff
Hastings This land is situated a
the corner of Main and Liberty
streets and comes from a point in the
rear OF Mr. Meigs' home, forming {
triangle whose base is about two fee
wide The jury were gone for nearl!
an hour.
Returning to the court room Attor
ney 4 r. Gordon, for the plaintiff
read two deeds, the first of which
stated that the property was one foo
wide where the stone wall is, or was
and FIVE feet at the rear. The othe
deed il somewhat similar and date
back to July 8. 1899 After the deed
had been read. George Patterson, win

cate that any definition of the term
village is intended other than the
common, known and everyday use of
the word.
when the languarge of the statute
is plain, fair and intelligent" said Mr..
Bacon, itself is the best and should
be the only, expositor of the meaning
of the legislature, if an adherence to
it would not involve an absurdity
to and violation of the legislation.
There is nothing ambiguous about
the meaning of the word village in
thescommon, known and accepted use
of the term; that meaning given the
world by long usage, by the standard
dictionaries and by the courts. If
the Legislature intended the word
village to mean an incorporated vii
lage 1t would have been an easy mat
ter to have included the word incor-
porated' in the act. Certainly the use
of the word settlement would negate
any such construction. Sparcity of
population and dearth of incorporat-
ed village in our state would GER
tainly make an act an absurdity If
the attempt were made to read the
word incorporated into the acts in
connection with the word village"
The attorney then enumerated the
mercantile establishments and bust
ness of South Vernon and also that
of the other communities in the town
and said that it seemed a little far
fetched on the part of the plaintiff s
attorney to attempt to dignity any
thing outside of South Vernon as a
mercantile business.
st will be seen by large prepon'
| derence of evidence" concluded Mr.
| Bacon, that nearly all of the mer'
camille business of the town of Yer
non is done at South Vernon; nearly
all of the freight and railroad bust
ness, and all of the hotel and livery
business; that South Vernon is by
far the largest of the three villages
in population; that in an area less
than one-half that of the village o
Vernon and the village of Drummer
it has seven or eight more houses
than Dummer and only four or fiv'
less than the village of Vernon ant
that South Vernon is the chief o.
principal village of the town."
AS usual, no decision was given.

was formerly a tenant in the Meigs'
house, was called to the stand for the
plaintiff but he could not be found.
He had been duly summoned and had
been in the court or witness room the
greater part of the day. When his
name came up, however, and no res
ponse was made the Court sent Sher-
if Tracy and some of the court Off
GERS on search for the missing wit
ness, the lawyers, clerks and assist
ant judge going out in the mean time.
After nearly half an hours wait Pat
terson was found and brought back to
the court room. In his testimony he
declared that he had resided on the
present Meigs' property for eight or
nine years and that as far as he knew
the old stone wall designated the
line. He stated that at that time Mr.
Clogston occupied close up to the
wall. He also testified as to the
fence which separated the two prop
critics.
Mr. Patterson testified as to the TAX
ing of the measurements from the
Brown property to the fence. When
cross-examined by Attorney William
Lord, the witness said that the stone
wall which he told about was a loose
affair, as if the stones had beer
I thrown in haphazard. The case was
then adjourned until this morning
when the plaintiff will put on one
more witness. Before dismissing the
jury and court officials, Judge Wat
erman delivered himself in emphatic
terms to .the effect that when wit
nesses were summoned to appear il
court, that they were expected to b.
there and stay there until they wer'
wanted on the stand. He said tina
the court and the jury could not b.
IeXpected to wait for single witnes
while he was away on his privat
business, and he requested that here
after the court officials see to it tina
all witnesses are on hand at tn
proper time.

THE COMPROMISE.
He Thought He Was Firm and Knew
He Was Considerable.


The young man had entered that
mysterious realm called matrimony,
and as it was his first offense his ia
Their was handing him some paternal
advice as to how he should treat the
young wife.
"When you have any little differ
ences of opinion, my son." he said to
the boy. "if you can't persuade Mar
garet that you are right-and you prob
ably can't, for they are all about alike
you must compromise. Be firm, yet
be considerable and compromise"
"Yes, father" replied the son.
81 well remember little expert
ence," and reminiscent expression
came over the old mans face, ION the
very threshold of the married life of
your mother and myself, and 1t was
the basis of all future disputes. II
was this way: / wanted to spend the
summer, our first vacation together, In
Maine, and your mother wanted to go
to Saratoga. That was thirty years
ago. But l shall never forget how firm
and yet how considerate | was will
your mother and how we compromised
avoiding all dispute. We stayed from
Saturday noon to Tuesday morning at
Bar Harbor. and then we spent the
rest of the summer at Saratoga. Yes
indeed" the old man added, with {
sigh. that's the only way to deal with
woman You must be firm, but be
willing to compromise a little once In
awhile, as have done with your moth
