ment against John E. Fenninger,
young Grand township farmer, who
was inflicted for wilfully obstructing
ROAD. Ills DOHu was iiSSd ht %OoV,
which was promptly furnished. This
is the outcome of the unfortunate af-
fair at Elm Lake last fall when one of
a team Of horses from Cases livery
barn was so badly injured in barb
wire fence that it had to be shot. 1t
is alleged that the fence was changed
and the wire stretched across the road
which had been open to public travel
for some time, and that no sign or
barrier was erected to warn the pub
lie of the change. The accident hap
pened after dark and both horses were
badly cut up. 1t is not generally
thought that Mr.. Fenninger intended
harm to anyone, but simply set the
fence over to square up his land. The
public had cut off a corner of the same
in driving around the lake. Mr.. Fen
ninger is also defendant to a suit for
damages to the team which IS brought
by the owners.
