E. `Russell of_ Midhurst, the sum of $187.26 and costs in this claim against J.

The -parties present at the time of the making of the bar- gain were the plaintiff and the de- fendant and the defendant's father. The onus is on the plaintiff to satisfy the court that there wassuch a war- ranty. The defendant and his father both swore positively that there was nothing said about the horse being balky or not balky. There was no- thing in the manner of any of them to cause me to believe the plaintiff in preference to `the defendant and his father and on the evidence I feel that the plaintiff has failed to satisfy the onus of proving the warranty. The evidence as to the horse being balky is not very conclusive on that branch of the case, either. (H111. __.- , , HUB! \ ' " 01.0 Diamond Jubilee of Anglican Church, Ivy, Aug. 27. Rev. W. F.

The defendant contends that he has paid the plaintiff the full value of the potatoes sold by `him to the plaintiff, and that the potatoes were not of the quality bought by him. I nd on the evidence that the plaintiff` sold the potatoes-381 bags. -to the defendant at 80 cents a bag. The defendant was at the plaintiff s T farm .and the potatoes in question were in a box stall in the stable and the defendant examined the potatoes, climbing up on top and digging down with his hands and looking at them, nally said he could handle them. A few days after, he called the plaintiff up by telephone and said he could handle them at 80 cents a bag if the plaintiff would put them in 91-pound ` bags to be furnished by the defend- ant, and the plaintiff agreed to these` . terms and a day or two after obtain- . ed the bags and began lling them. f Up to this time there was nothing I said in the nature of representations as to quality or otherwise; the bar- gain up to this time was founded en- tirely upon the defendant s inspec- tion. When plaintiff had lled sever- al of the bags, and while in the ct in to him, bearing date Mar. 10, from] the defendant to the plaintiff. The plaintiff states that he immediately went to the telephone and told the 1 defendant that there were terms in the letter not agreed to by him and if insisted upon by the defendant the deal was off, and that the defendant` said in reply that he had seen the potatoes, knew they were all right; and to go ahead and load th_em,.and in consequence of what defendant. said over the telephone the plaintiff did go on and load them and shipped them according to instructions from defendant. I am therefore compell- ed to hold that there were no repre- sentations nor warranties,_ and that the defendant bought upon his" own examination. It would appear that after the potatoes arrived at London consignee would not receive theml and the defendant, upon reaching London about eleven days after, found a great many spoiled. For the plaintiff it was stated by witnesses that potatoes in a closed car without ventilation in mild weather might spoil. Many witnesses who helped plaintiff load the car swore the po- tatoes were in good condition` when loaded, which was the time the de- fendant received delivery, and on the evidence I must nd that the defend- ant received them in good condition. rnkn Yrutlrrn LAIA J-'LnJ- LL...._ -----_ -~ , ,-v _-_-___ The downpour of rain which ac- companied the electrical storm was one of the heaviest in years for the same length of time.
