Gets $1,000 Verdict

In the case of John P. Osborne VI
the Grand Trunk Railway of Canads
favorable verdict was rendered fol-
the plaintiff.
This was an action against the
railway company by John P
Osborne, plaintiff, for personal in
juries secured at what is known as
the "Washout Curve" about l!
miles west of Waterville, Que, on
July 8, 1910, which was occasioned
by the failure of the operator at
Coaticook, Que, to deliver an order
to Mr.. Osborne, who was then con-
ductor of train Elk. engine 707,
going west, to meet train Ex. engine
762 coming east, at Waterville.
The defendant offered no evidence
in regard to liability, but claimed
that the action was prescribed by
the laws of Canada, limiting the
time for bringing such actions
against a railway company to one
year.
The court excluded all evidence in
regard to statute of limitation of
Canada, in effect that the plaintiff,
never having gSresided in Canada at
the time of the accident or since,
but being a resident of United States
the statutes of Canada could not run
against him, having no exterritorial
force.
The case was submitted to the
jury on the question of damages
only, which returned a verdict for
the plaintiff to recover the sum of
81, 900 and his costs.
Mr.. Osborne was represented by
c. R. Powell, of Island Pond and
Simmonds & Searles of st. Johns
bury.
The counsel for the defendant was
Mr. Morris of the firm of Drew,
Shurtliff & Morris of Lancaster, N.
H., H. B. Amey, Island Pond and H.
B. Sweetser of Portland, Me.
Experts on the laws of Canada
were Hon. M. F. Hackett, K. c.,
Stanstead, Que, for Mr.. Osborne
and Mr.. Surveye of Montreal for
the Grand Trunk.
The arguments for the plaintiff
were plead by Mr.. Powell and Mr..
Simmonds; those for the defendant
by Mr.. Amey and Mr.. Morris.
The case went to court Nov. 20
and verdict was rendered at 8 p.
M, Nov. 20 Judge Fish of Ver-
gennes was the presiding judge.
The work of the fall term of the
Essex County court being completed
court was adjourned sine die.

Amatuer Play a Success

Very few entertainments have
given more enjoyment than that pro.
duced by the Base Ball Association,
Thanksgiving night, in Opera Hall
when the farce comedy, "All Mis-
take" was presented in an excellent
manner by home talent, before a
large audieuce.
Every member of the cast perform
ed his or her part in most creditable
manner, and the fullest measure of
praise is accorded each and everyone.
So well did they perform, that to
mention one, more than the other
would be invidious.
Following the play, dancing was
enjoyed until late hour. Excellent
music being dispensed by Dyer's
Orchestra.
This was the initial entertainment
of a series to be given this winter by
the Base Ball Association, the re-
ceipts of which will go toward defray-
ing the expenses of the ball team next
summer. Treasurer Withrow re-
ports a tidy sum realized from the
above performance.

Special Count Dec. 16.

Now listen! There is absolutely
no truth in the statement that this
is the closed season for hunting sub
scriptions to the Essex County
Herald. The law, (made by the
HERALD, permits live, active, aggres-
siqe contestants to hunt subscriptions
until the close of the contest.
One of the prettiest pianos ever
unloaded in this section is now on
exhibition at WilcOxs' store. Every
dav we have comments by people
who have seen it; such as, Isn't it
beautiful?" Il wish it were mine,
etc.
Thecontest closes Jan. 6, 1913, but
we will hold a special count on Dec.
10Th, and the one making the largest
gain from the last count will be
awarded $40 in gold. Some of the
bonuses after that date will be cutso
take opportunity by the forelock and
hustle now. The better field for
operation now lies in the country, as
practically everyone is subscriber
to the paper intOwn-or never Will be.
A sad feature of the contest was
the death this week Of little Thelma
Barnes, one of the leaders in the
race. The bonuses arranged by the
HERALD will be good up to and
including the count of Dec. 10Th are
as follows:
For every seven yearly new sub
scriptions, we will give 10000 extra
votes, making a total of IA, 200 votes.
For every seven renewal subscrip-
tions, 5000 extra, a total Of 11,5OO
votes.
For every seven back subscriptions
5000 extra, total of 5000 votes.
For every 40 merchants coupons
brought to this Office and counted
by the publisher or his assistants
a bonus of 500 extra votes will be
given, a total of 800 in all.
t5g~ For every three, five year sub
scriptions, whether new, renewal, or
