CARRIED OFF THE PREMISES.
AN EVICTION AT THAMES. [BY TELEGRAPH.—OWN CORRESPONDENT.] Thames, Thursday. The- sequel to the dispute between the Waiotahi Gold Alining Company and Patrick Donnelly occurred to-day, in the eviction of Donnelly, who refused to give up possession. The dispute arose as to the ownership of the small section of ground on which Donnelly had resided for over 30 year.3 without any title, and which was on the Waiotahi Company's property, and was required by them for the enlargement of their tailing plant. The case was decided before the Warden some weeks ago, and judgment was given for the company, Donnelly being ordered to give up possession within 21 days. This he refused to do, notwithstanding the fact that the company offered him a far better house in the immediate vicinity, with other inducements. Ever)- offer being refused, Donnelly was evicted to-day by Mr. Lloyd, the local bailiff, assisted by the police, and the dwelling, which was in a, very dilapidated condition, was pulled down. Donnelly's belongings were placed on the road outside tho fence. Throughout the proceedings Donnelly protested against the action of the company, and had to bo carried off the premises.
