Action has been takenagainst the township of Colborne in the claim of Mrs. Wm. Ivers, of West Wawanosh, for damages for the death of her hus- band, caused' by the overturning of his wagon last fall on a road which the plaintiff claims was not in proper condition. Mrs. Ivers claims $10,000 damages. At the meeting of the Col- borne township council on Monday last it was decided to contest the claim. It is understood that the township, while denying any liability, would consider a proposition for set- tlement of the claim, but of course for a very much smaller amount than is named. The township has had a good deal of litigation lately and is probab- ly not anxious for any more. In the meantime it looks as if the matter would go before the courts. Salem.
