his activities both in church and civic

BROWN vs. BENNETT
CASE IS SETTLED
Plaintiff Allowed 81,000 Damages for
Misrepresentation as to Boll 'of
Cray Township Farm
Mr. Justice Smith, of Toronto, on
February 5111 gave our his judgment
in an interesting case, which was
heard in April, 1923, at the non -jury
sittings of the Supreme Court at
Goderich, in which Alexander Brown,
of Grey, sued T. R. and Mrs, Bennett,
now of Wingham, for $2,000 damages
on the score of fraudulent misrepre-
sentation of a farm which the defend-
ants sold to the plaintiff in January,
1022. Justice Smith in his judgment
allowed the plaintiff, Brown. damages
to the extent of $1;000, with costs in
the case. Charles Seeger, K..0., and
M, G. Cameron, K. 0. appeared on
behalf of the plaintiff, while R. Van -
stone, of Wingham, appealed on be-
half of the defendants.
The plaintiff Brown, who had been
a farmer in Thunder Bay district, was
desirous of settling on a farm in Old
Ontario. Mrs. 't` R. Bennett owned
150 acres on the 1st Concession of
Grey township which on April 9th,
1921,.she listed for sale (through het'
husband as agent) with W1 0. Miller,
of Wingharn, acting for the Stolid
Farm Agency. Information given by
the Bennetts t0 Millet was to the
effect that "the elutranter of the soil
was clayloam principally, the subsoil,
gravel and clay, and that the buildings
were all in Bast -class condition,"
On January 111h, 1022, Brown visit-
ed Wingham.and lonked over a num-
berof farms stir, Miller had on his
list, Brown indicated to Miller that
he would slot buy te farm "with a poor
bottom." Miller then recommended
the Bennett fax "as a fleet -rinse
farm with a good clay bottoms." In
the Stoud agency'e .pamphlet the land
on the Bennett Penn was described as.
being of "a rich clay loath, slightly
rolling." Brown visited the l3ennett
farni on a day when taloround was
covered with snow and hard -frozen.
On January 18th or 19th Brown tele-
phoned Miller from Teterboro, where
he had gone to look til, some other
farms, that he would buy the Bennett
farm. On Jnntinty 80th, an agree,.
talent of 51110 wan ixemited for -$8,900.
On Retell 7th, 1922, Brown moved on
the farm. with his family and the
t1'ansactiotl was completed by 'a con-
veyence in. May.
Br cavo ae plaintiff claimed damages
$2,000 for fraudulent mlepresentation
of the fauna, the cclerepresentatiut't
claimed being that the bulidittge
were in first -close condition, that the
0011 was clay loam, with clay and
gravel birttoln, and that the faun Wile
not weedy.
Quoting Juetioe Smlth'e judgment
"Part of tate ftorop consists of sand.
that will blow with the wand ; a Very
aabstantiai startle of sand loam, an-
other portion of sand and elal' loam,
There is probably lase tltam half the
farm that could properly be nlaesed as
Clay loam,
Justice ceSmith held that the alleged
misrepresentation of the farm as not
being weedy bed not been .established
and also !bat Brown had had an op-
rfr kir t 1 r lexat
pprtunity c melting tg t- i e su»a exam-
ination of the buildhigs on the .00-'
daeion of hie visit to the farm in
January, 1022.
Continuing the a judgment reads
"There was,f,tise rept orientation »Inde
by the defendant's agent (W. C. 0111 -
ler) and the defendant, T R. Bennett,
acting for 111e wife, as to the character
of the soil, This misrepresentation
was made knowingly and fraudulent-
ly for the purpose of inducing the
plaintiff to purebeee the fat nt and he
entered 111th the agreement for snob
purchase upon the strength of this
fraudulent misrepreeentation without
inspecting, it of opportunity of in-
speoting it owing to Winter' condi-
tions."'.
