To Quiet Title
To Bio Bar Bridge.

Mrs Gardella, owner of the Big Bar
bridge which spans the Mokelumne river
in the road to Mokelumne Hill, has
started two law suits to quiet title to
that structure, and its approaches on
either side. One suit is against ANA
dor county and the other against Gala
veras county. L. Burke, as chairman
of the board of supervisors of this
county, was served with a copy of the
summons and complaint last Monday.
We understand similar action was
taken in Calaveras county on that day.
The two counties exercise Joint super
vision over this bridge. Negotiations
were in progress for the sale of tine
bridge-which is the only toll bridge in
this county-to the counties concerned
for $4,000. Doubts were raised as to the
title, the outcome being that the
supervisors decided not to 90 any
further in the matter of purchasing until
Mrs Gardella had tested her title by an
action in court.

decree to annul an order of the superior
court of this county dismissing the ap-
peal of A. N. Bergavin & Co. from a
judgment obtained in the justice court

made in San Francisco between the

fendant the right TO FLEA new bond on
