RANGIORA.
Tuesday, September 26. (Before H. W. Bishop, Esq., R.M., and E. R. Good, Esq., J.P.) CiviL Case. —H. Vallance v C. Boyce, £6 claim for damage in cutting down a . dividing gorse fence. Mr Cathro for plain* tiff, Mr Spackman for defendant. After hearing evidence the Resident Magistrate said plaintiff had claimed for damage where no damage was shown to have been caused. He stated that a horse had passed from defendant's land to his, but he treated it lijjhtly by saying it did no injury, only it had no business to be there. The evidence showed that the fence was so cut down that plaintiff in the future might sustain injury through trespass of defendant's cattle, but until that took place he could not sustain an action in the present form. Nonsuited with coats.
