The simple and only ques- learned Council is—Did the

defendants act under the Statute? If they acted bona fice and honestly under it, that then the jury were bound to find a verdict for them even although they thought | Larkins Wis improperly dismissed. Mr. Palmer then examined the evidence

and criticised the hostile witnesses with his usual force and vigor, and closed his address with an eloo zent peroration in which he suggested that the jury should not pay too much attention to the remarks of the counsel on either side, and more particularly to those of the learned gentle- man who was about to follow him, as he was ned in hia earnestness and eloquence to make reckless statements. He said that by certain signs and storm signals that were hoisted, he anticipated squalls, and greatly feared that Mr. Davies intend- ed to make a general onslaught upon his glients and their witnesses. He told the jury that it was their duty to be guided by the directio of the learned judge, who would calmly and dispassionately weigh the evidence.

Mr. Davies followed Mr, Palmer in an eloquent address, in which a vigorous at- tack was made on the defendants and their witnesses, cad a strong appeal made fora verdict.

Judge Peters charged the jury on Satur- day morning. He said the action was fownded on the Public Schools Act, and that it was one of great difficulty owing to the many inconsistent sections in that Act; that under it the trustees of any school has full author ty to dismiss any teacher, and no matter how erroneously they acted if they acted honestly and bona fide in the execution of their duty, they acted under that Act, and the Act protected them ; and the jury were bound to find a verdict for them. Before the jury could find a verdict for the plaintiff they must be clearly satisfied in their minds that the trustees acted without reasonable cause,and and that tley did not believe the charges preferred against the teacher, and that they

accuat

used the authority given them by the Act for some ulterior purposes of their own. The jury must be satisfied

that the defendants acted wilfuily and im- properly in dismissing the plaintiff from the school. The learned Judge, in conclusion, cautioned the jury that inasmuch as the School Act foisted the office of School Trustee on a man against his will, that they should be very caretul before finding a ver- dict against the present defendants, as the precedent would be bad and the result very dangerous.

The jury, after a short absence, found a verdict for the plaintiff for $235 damages.

Philip Smith was sentenced to three months and six day’s imprisonment for larceny, after which the Court rose.

LETTER FROM A CITIZEN—READ IT,

To the Editor of the Kxaminer. «

Six,—In alate issue of the Examiner, | notice you call attention to thecivic election for Ward Two—brought about by the resigna- tion of Wm. Koughan, Esq., as City Coun- cillor.

it has occurred to me that the present would, perhaps, be a fitting time to test the wishes of the residents of Ward Two on the question of water supply. I deem it quite unneeessary to go at any length into the sub- ject, as to whether we require a supply of water from other sources than the present. That question appears to be auswered in the affirmative by every one; and the only ques: tion pending seems*ta he; ‘‘Can we afford it”’ and this is met by the terse and sugges- tive reply: ‘‘Can we afford to do with- out it 2”

We are told by physicians and men of judgment, that the health of our city is seri- ously impaired, owing to bad water and total lack of sewerage. The fact is patent each day, that very many citizens—rather than risk drinking impure water from our city wells—annually spend a large amount in daily drawing water from Spring Park. We have also the additional fact pointed out, that the rates of Insurance now paid in Charlottetown are very largely in excess of rates este in cities having a never-failing supply of water ; and, I may add further, it must be patent to all that, notwithstanding the fact that we possess a fire department, officered and manned by as intelligent and heroic a body of men as you will find in any city, yet from the painful fact that we frequently have not the water to use in extinguishing fires, their ser- vices are too often of no avail, and serious pre- ventable damage has and will continue to occur, probably culminating in the destruction of the larger part of the city. This is not a desirable outlook: but I respect- fully submit, that in view of the great lack of water, experienced twice during the past sum- mer, the probabilities have not been overdrawn. The question remains, how is the matter to be dealt with in order to secure the end in view and yet not lay our city under a tribute that in these acknow- ledged stringent times it is unable to bear? Whule I hold decided epinions as to the ab- solute necessity of obtaining an adequate sup- ply of water, coupled with an efficient system of drainage, I also hold to the opinion® that any radical change involving the expenditure of a large sum of money, should first be en- dorsed by the citizens at the polls, or pub. lic meetings, at which the voice and vote of

I the peeple may be ascertained. I am Sir. Yours obediently, CrtlzENn, 'Ch’town East, Oct. 9 '80.
