ADDISON COUNTY COURT.


of the Addison County Court were out
Tuesday. The term will begin in the
court house in Middlebury on Tuesday,
December 2, with Hon. E. L. Water
man of Brattleboro as chief judge.
The other officers of the term will be /:
Hon. Henry E. Day of Ripton and Hon.
Wilbur E. Hanks of Bristol, assistant
judges; Frank w. Tuttle of Vergennes,
states attorney.
Judging from the docket and calendar
the outlook is for brief term of court,
but that cannot always be told in ad-
vance, as new and unexpected business
is likely to start up any day before the
final adjournment. On the general law
docket there are only So cases, II of
which are on the jury calendar. There
are 1S cases on the divorce docket, and
there are % cases on the criminal
docket. Ten of these are old cases
which were disposed of at previous
terms and the respondents which are in
the charge of Probation Officer Smith,
under suspended sentences. There are
only eight cases on the chancery docket,
but some of these are important, and
the court list comprises just seven
cases.
Much of the doubt as to the probable
length of the term will begin to diss I've
when the jury calendar of civil cases is
called on the opening day, as many of
those set for trial are likely to be
settled or discontinued and as the
criminal cases now in court are of small
consequence and none of them likely to
consume much time.
The civil cases set for jury trial are as
follows: Martin F. Fuller VS. E. H.
Palmer, false warranty; French and
Crosby VS. the Boston and Maine rail-
road company, action on the case:
A. ?. Needham VS. the Boston and
Maine railroad company, case; Fred
Begor VS. James B. Tulley, appellant,

Clifford Patnode's estate vs. John
Douglas, general assumpsit; Edward L.
Keton vs. H. L. Williamson, case;
Herman Perchta VS. Moses Carpenter,
appellant, trespass; C. c. Field VS.
Arthur Yott ct al. replevin; c. A. Burn.
ham VS. the Rntland Railroad company,
case; Jubie Converse, appellant, VS.
Stephen w. Gregory's estate, appeal
from commissioners; William La Due,
appellant, VS. same estate and 81 nilar
case; Ira J. Braydia. appellant, VS.

Vancelette, by his next friend, Henry
Vancelette, VS. Samuel Jewett, appel
liant, general assumpsit; Adolphus
Booska vs. town of Bristol, case; Jessie
l.. Brush VS. Earle Brown, bastardy;
Warren Cram VS. Henry Carpenter, APP
pellant, trover; and Norman S. Foote
VS. George M. Moore, appellant, special
assumpsit and con mon counts.
The cases on the court calendar are
the following: Herbert A. Burroughs
VS. Judge S. Burroughs, reprevln; E.
E. Wright VS. Joseph Lorain, general
IOSC W. lNOBCIS V. LQ-
ward c. Rogers. general assumpsit;
H. B. Cook administrator VS. Archie
j. Cook and Charles E. Cook, pc
tition for partition Margaret M.
Rivett VS. Leslie w. Baldwin, general
assumpsit; Katherine Begor's admins
traitor VS. Lewis Begor, appellant,
ejectment, and H. A. B. Palmer's ex-
ecutor VS. L. F. Dean, note and assump-
sit.
1t will be seen that if all the jury
cases should come to trial the term
would last for several weeks, but this is
not probable, as above indicated. We
have already printed the list of the
petit jurors, and no grand jury has been
called out for the coming term.
