Colin McLean and Gibson Pelton
oconpy two adjoining farms in West Ox-
ford. They have lived there for upwards
of forty years and have always been gond
neighbors until the other day their long
period of tranquil and hitherto peaceful
life gave place to strife of a mild nature,
the culmination of which was a settle•
went of the differences in the Woodstock
police court. Their neighborly relations
were broken in this way :—The dividing
line between the two farms ie an ordinary
rail fence. It appears, however, that it
was built in rather an ordinary that
and this was what caused the trouble.
Towards the farther end of the fence it
became necessary for the builders to
deviate from the straight line and a mall
jog was left. This was made in favor of
the McLean farm and in the small space
there grew a monster elm tree which
when out into above lengths would furnish
a goodly acquisition to the farmer's wood-
pile. Had the fence been built straight,
the elm in question would have been
found situated on the Pelton farm.
Quite natnral,then, that the latter should
consider his rights to the tree. The
hired man one day espied the tree, and
with hie keen edged axelaid it low, and
with the assistance of young Patton, drew
the wood to the hoose unbeknown to Mr.
Pelton, sr. The plaintiff on visiting the
glen and finding his favorite elm laid low
and carried of bodily, of course wanted
satisfaction and interviewed the police
magistrate. After bearing the evidence,
the magistrate decided to dismiss the
moo and an amicable settlement will
likely he affected.
