homestead farm in Liberty, which he had
rented to the defendant in April, 1914, with the
agreement that he should buy the standing
lumber on the place and also erect on it his
portable saw mill, using the house to care
for his mill, etc. In October Mr.. Harmon found
that the defendant did not intend to buy the
timber, that he had used the hay in the barn,
had pastured his oxen in the fields and orchard,
that the house had been injured and some Of
his personal property was missing. He warn
ed him from the place and brought suit for
$40 for iron, $6 for a large steel bar, 81 so
for cider barrels, SIS for shutters and $l.S0 for
glass for broken windows. Morton Clark and
Boardman Cunningham of Liberty were called
by the plaintiff to testify in regard to the con-
ditions about the place, etc. Mr.. Porter had
refused to pay anything for use of farm, hay
or tools. The total sum sued for was $143 80.
The defense was that he was not liable for the
amount sued as he had not received value for
that, but he was willing to pay reasonable
amount for what he had received and offered
to settle for $40. Mr.. Glidden, employed BY
Mr.. Porter. was called for the defence Blanch-
ard for the plaintiff and Buzzell for the de-
fendant presented their arguments before
noon when the court adjourned to Q D. m.
