Ordinary Edwin w: Dart spent sew
eral hours yesterday in hearing case
which involved the opening of what
is known as the Green Swamp Road
on a petition brought by Attorney
Isaac M. Wengrow, representing
Charlton Wright and others who are
asking that this road be re-oponed.
| The road was closed by r. R. Mac
Gregor and he is represented by Con
Iyers & Wilcox. A large number of
witnesses were on hand yesterday
and the proceedings were OF an in.
treesting nature.
The road in question has been used
as a public road for more than forty
years and extends from the Alama

those who are bringing action to
have it reopened are presenting evi

be great inconvenience if it ls taken
from the use of the public.
Mr.. MacGregar, through his attor

contention is that he has a perfect
right to close the road Judge Dart
