Wilson, of Zurich., was tried before Judge Squier on Monday, on a charge of obtaining money under false pretences from a German in that vicin- . From the evidence, it appears that Wilson who has been a prominent citi- zen of Hay, was indebted to the plain- tiff to tho amount of $300, but the lat- ter lent $150 more, and accepted a note for $450 endorsed by Robt. Brown and his brother. At the time of this nego- tiation Wilson offered the note which was payable 26 mouths after date, but the plaintiff wanted it payable in 12 months. Wilson, flunking that he could easily redeem it in that time, 'un- wittingly -and in the presence of plaintiff and his agent altered the note and made it payable in 12 months. Subsequently the prisoner became insolvent and when the note was presented to the endorsers they repudiated it, having signed it as a note payable at26 months. Of course the alteration in the note nullified it. Crown Attorney Lewis prosecuted and Mr. J. T. Garrow appeared for the de-. tense. Mr. C. Straubel, of God.erich, acted as interpreter for the G-erraan wit- nesses. Judge Squier held his decision until Tuesday"morning, when he dis- missed the prisoner considering that he had net made any false pretences to the plaintiff. 131rthe, NOTT—In Brussels on January 80, the wife of john Nett, V. 8., of a daughter.
