A Vi.ltor'. Opinion or Dlyth Fair.
Among the thousands of visitors
who attended Blyth fair last week
was Mr. M, Y. McLean, editor of the
Seaforth Expositor. Mr. McLean is
cleared and unfenced. Mr. 11111
wanted to enclose his portion of the
bush, and Insisted that Mr. Sweet
should build half of the line fence.
To this the latter objected, as ho
contended that it was unoconpied
and unused by him. Mr. 11111 then
called in three fence -viewers, who
made an award sustaining Mr, Ilill's
contention, Mr. Sweet then appeal-
ed through his solicitor, 51r. J. G.
Stanbury, of Exeter, to Judge Doyle,
who heard the appeal on 'Tuesday.
Ills Honor, after reviewing the
evidence, gave judgment in favor of
Mr, Sweet, with costs, and set aside
the award.
