A t the meeting on the 21st inst., a ll thil trustff!a except one were present. From I h e sp eeches of Ool. Cu b itt , Messrs. Fairba:iro, B orsc ;y , B nrden, Tamblyn, ~yle and }, f oClung the utter lack of proper and nniileie ut accommodation for our pupils wr-s made clear . It was also shown th.at the best wr.y to meet tlrn want is by erecting a m~para te building for High Schoiil purposes whether regarded finan ci~lly, ph yaicully, morally, or educationall_y. A acrion~ loss of money is, and will be incurred every year unless such a cQ'.Urse be pursued . This loss will bo ut least ~200 and i ~ rrn·y be $4Ji0.40 accord· ing to bhe fi gu re:> of Mayor Horsey who with Mr. B urden was strongly opvosecl to d oing ;nmy wit h the High School. These genth·~-uen plir haps unintentionally made however, 5 0UHJ very misleading state· me,nts. :M r. Horsoy said that the grants coµld not be d epended upon and that the poor could n ot ;w ail themselves of ti1 e ad· vanta,gt~s of (> H igh School. Ihe answer t o these a~sertions is th at every change th&t h as been made in lhe 6pport ionm ent of the High School grant fo1· over 20 years M was statCJd at t he meeting, and it is a fa.~t, has b otin for the pecun arv benefit of tli..e H igh Soh uol,and that more children cf p qor J!<irent~ to-day, awl al ways, than of r ich parent-0, atteuu our High School. Mr. Burd.en ~~i d "it has bi!en stated that t1ie ruon1rn were unfit for th ~ High School, fttld we were asked to put the Pub:it: S chool i n Lhem. " Now what was stated, was fa,r diffe rent. It was stated that the haJl <Ln d t h e chemical room were unfi t for the H igh Sch ool pupils; that they had been con de mned, rmd that there was no intxm ti~·m of \!Ging them for cla ~s rooms. Mr. B urden also said that the huildiugA M:e not so bad as represented. Let anybody visit them and ser. So me of the i;uoms am a d isgra.tll to thill town. The ontside arran gements are still m ore scand elous and they were d~picted in none too forcibie a wny b y Mr. )1[60lung. 'l'he almpst u nanimous feeling of those that know t he real state of ont· school buildit~s and pr er:1i 5eo, is t h at the Board should go vigo l'O nsly 'to work and do sonrnthi n~ .. It Las 1alked for ye.are let it work n ow. The p eople of Bowmanville do n ot wa nt to l ose $300 t o $100 :1 yoar; they do want uuitable an d sufficien t school buildings.

The sou sold one of th e properties in 1871 to R ichard -Brown, ancl the other to Jonath:m. 'l'yreman tho snme year . The widow resorted t o tho lot sold to Brown each year for he1· wood until last year, when the wood on that lot was exhausted, she went to the 'l'y1 eman lot for h er wood, but was by him r efased permiesion t o cut as he claimed that he had h eld the property undistnrb6cl for over 10 years, h e would not be interfeared with and Mrs. Gi!lbtmk had l ·1st her rights. This action was instit uted by Mrs. Gil!hank to h ave h er r ights declared and Tyceman restrained from interfearing with her in th e ex ercise of those de:hts . Judgment wae given for the plaintiff, M rs. Gill bank, aa asked for by h er with .-nst.s. D. Burke Simpson for plaintiff, R. R . Loscombe for defende nt . McMurtry 'Vs. Dingle.- The case for the plaint iff showed that in June 1883, T. ,J. Mc Murt ry was an agent in Bowmanville for the s ale of m achine1·y and arr:u1ged with the late W. 'f . D ingle, of Oshawa, to ac~ for him as agent in selling fanning mills. Dingle, against McMur try's wish, b~ought clown t o him 24 fanning mills and asked McMurt l'y to give him his promisory note for $552 to re p resent the mills to accommodate him, agree ing t hat all mills not sold were to b e taken back by Di ngle and allowed on the note as cash. l\foMurtry sold 11 out of the 24 au d accounted to Dingle for t he contract price o.f same, no.mcly $252, in t he fall of 1885. In the fall of 1886 the Dominion Bau k sued McM urtry on lha note which McMurtry had t o pay and brought ·.bis actio n against t h e Estate of Mr. Dingle to recover the amount h<.' so paid and co·ts. On the part of Mr. Dingle it was contended tha t the sale was a n o nt and out sale of 24 fannin ~; m ills for $552 which was settled for by the note refened to.
