The appeal of the T. R. Sadd Go. from the Board of Relief valuation of 1918 occupied the whole day in the superior court Thursday and will be taken up today, following the short calendar and calling of the docket. The case for the plaintiff was finished Thursday, court adjourning at o'clock. At the beginning of the morn ing session, Judge James H. Webb, with his attorneys, Samuel B. Harvey and Thomas J. Kelley, Assessor George to the Sadd block and viewed the prop erty and the fixtures and electrical ap paratus.
 The major part of the story was taken up with facts as to the value of the component parts of the list which are objected to. but a sensation was sprung by the introduction of teS- timony tending to show that James. P Mustard. former partner of MT Sadd, and a member of the board ot assessors when the controversy arose put in an inventory of the business arrangement between himself and MT Sadd, early in 1913, which was at a greater valuation than was actually the case.
 The appeal was from certain items of the list as follows: The Sadd block
 
 reduced by the board of relief to $25,- coo; the lot on which it stands, put in at $14,280, and reduced to SIS, ,9S0; the stock, coffee mill and roaster, se1 at s3. 1900 by both boards; and the cleo trical machinery, boiler and storage battery, set at s3,500 by both boards
 Frank F. Fenton, town clerk, was the nrst witness, and testified to the facts of the assessors list of 1913-14 showing the action of the board of re- lief, and reading into the record the f1gnres above set forth.
 Manager Sadd's Testimony. T. R. Sadd, manager of the company answered few preliminary questions after which an hours adjournment was taken to allow a view of the premises At 11.30 court re-convened, and MT Sadd resumed the stand to take up the various articles separately and put his value upon them. The storage bat tery on the premises, he said, was 1T poor condition. It was put in ter years ago at cost of $2,200, the life was eight to ten years; formerly il required charging but twice a week now every day. and it did not dc the work. Its value was from SIS tC $100. He valued the piping at s10 The boiler was IS years old, a 3( horsepower high pressure boiler, could only carry 80 lbs. now, whereas it for merly carried 160; it had no value except as junk, perhaps $25 as out side figure.
 The old dynamo cost $500, second hand ten years ago, the armature is practically all gone, and it is little used. The new dynamo was bought six years ago. second hand, at a cost of $500. had been used Is years then out-of-date and badly worn, value $200 The old engine he valued at $5; il hadn't been used for several years The booster bought in 1911 to supply extra voltage to the batteries cost $50C and was now worth about $25O.
