 The case of Charles Q. Mowry ct ux N@. Trc cderick Racine, Dayville parties. was tried before Judge Lucien Burpee at session of the superior court held here on Wednesday,.
 l The suit is one in which Mir Mowry 1 claims damages from MT. Racine on ! the ground that the defendant sold a house, in Dayville. to MT Mowry and represented to him before the transac- tion and sale was completed that the 1 cellar of the structure was dry. MT. Mowry testified during the course of the trial that much water came into the cellar last winter and i that as a result he was greatly incon- 7! venienced ard he suffered losses of foodstuffs and other articles stored in tho cellar.
 It appeared from the evidence of different witnesses that the water complained about as getting into the cellar of the Mowr-r home came from q drain or ditch that runs from the KillinGly town farm down into the village of Davville. This ditch has | given trouble by flooding properties ot various owners of real estate along iti
 course, and the town of Killingly re-

 clean out the ditch and so improve it It was contended by the plaintiff
 side in the trial on Wednesday that
 the ditch was blocked up near its
 mouth during the past winter ant
 that the back flow of water found tht
 garden near the Mowry home as ont place of settlement and from there
 seeped into the cellar.
 It was claimed at the trial in Mir
 Racine's behalf that he did not rep.
 resent the cellar of the house in ques
 ton as a dry cellar as part of his effort to conclude the sale of the pro perty to MT. Mowry.
 Mrs Edna Mowry, wife of the plain tiff, testified that there was much wa
 ter in the cellar during the past win
 ter and that it remained until abou
 May or June. She became i'll witl LII
