AOAINsT TUE TOWN -Honorable Mr Justice Teetzel,who held' the Assizes in Goderich last week, gave judgment in the action of Miss Sangster against the town for ' damages sustained by falling into a hole in one Of the streets* He awarded damages of $000 with costs. On the street where the ac- cident occurred, however, there never was a sidewalk constructed, *and the defence to the action was that the roadway for horse and carriage traffic was all that was required for the street and that a pedestrian was not entitledto expet the road to be level from fence to fence. At a meeting of the town council. it was decided. to ap- peal the case. At the trial the j udge expreesed the opinion that the ease was one where the opinion of an appel- late court might be obtained for the purpose of having a decision on cases of this kind,there apparently being. no decided Canadian case on this point. 1101111064111. 4 Noris -The Civilian Cilub and the 0.
