had installed adequate pumping ma
chinery with requisite suction pipe
leading to and connected with the
wells and by proper methods meas
ured their flow in one volume, which
proved to be less than half the guar
anteed amount. To meet this defend
ant introduced testimony tending to
show the wells were not properly con-
nected with the suction pipe to cor
rectly measure the flow and no true
test was ever made, which it is urged
at least raised a question Of fact for
the jury. If that issue had been sub
mtted to the jury and determined in
defendants favor il would not show
that the wells if properly tested in
combination would meet his guarantee.
When called upon TO do so he refused
to cooperate with plaintiff in max
ing the test. Had the city refused to
Alma record. (Alma, Mich.) 1878-1928, 1921-05-12

cooperate with him or TO make the
the connections and conduct the test
as he directed il should be done, an
other question would be presented;
but he made no offer, request or de-
mand in that particular, so far as
shown, and flatly refused to advise or
participate in the prescribed method
Of proving whether or not he had full
filled his part.
The controlling question here is
plaintiffs right TO possession Of the
equipment when replevined. Upon
that issue the trial court rightly
found under the undisputcd facts dis
closed by this record that defendant
had not fulfilled all the covenants Of
Of this contract, which provided that
until he did such equipment should re-
main in the possession OF said city.
The judgment will stand affirmed.
Alma record. (Alma, Mich.) 1878-1928, 1921-05-12

followed by both tentative and final
tests with metered flow and the flow
Of all the wells by such test did not
exceed $50 gallons per minute. De-
PENDANT was sent for after the first
test. The mayor Of Alma and Rey-
holds went over the situation with
him, told him they wanted no trouble
but did want water and asked his
opinion as to how to get it. He denied
any responsibility, claimed the wells
were stopped by silt from the spring
freshet and said the way for them to
get more water was TO put down more
wells. On their insisting that he was
yet obligated under his contract TO
demonstrate that he had produced the
combined flow as specified, he de-
clined in emphatic language to further
advise or assist them.
Plaintiff introduced proof that it
Alma record. (Alma, Mich.) 1878-1928, 1921-05-12

AS to the questioned provisions of
paragraph ten providing for penalty
and forfeiture, it is not necessary in
this replevin action at law involving
only the right Of possession to pass
upon how or TO what extent they may
be ultimately enforced. The word
penalty" is Of such elastic meaning
that it may signify more or less ac-
cording TO the subject matter and
connection in which il is used. No
bond appears TO have been required in
this case as is usual in contracts with
municipalities and, as a quasi substi-
tute therefor, we see nothing illegal
in the stipulation that possession of
this machinery should remain in the
city as security for the faithful per-
formance. To that extent paragraph
ten is valid and enforcible in a pos
sessory action wnere non-performance
is shown.
1t appears that in the spring Of
1919 a city manager named Reynolds
who had experience in city engineer
ing and other duties in such service
was employed by plaintiff. When he
took charge, on May -, 1919, he
found on the water works property
the unconnected piping Of the wells
sticking above the ground and a COM
pleted concrete station building, 40x
90 feet, but the pumping machinery
not yet installed. He proceeded to
install the machinery and commune
Gated on the subject by letter with
defendant who was then at Jackson.
They met at Alma in June and Wis
tied the wells together where Rey-
nolds Intercepted him about the
depth, flow and number given to each
well, length and size Of screens and
other matters preparatory TO connect
ing them up for test and use. Defend
ant said he had the information at
Jackson and would get it for him
but failed to do so, as Reynolds claim
ed, only bringing him small plat
showing the place and number Of
each well. Wnie there he explained
something Of his manner Of con-
structing the wells, piping, casing,
strainers at the bottom OF four inch
pipe, etc, and said that all the wells
were cut off at uniform depth below
the surface of the ground. Amongst
