Three French lawsuits have been veritable Methuselahs of litigation. One. begun in 1210 by the Comte de Nevers against the inhabitants of Donzy, went on till 1848. A second, begun in 1254 by the inhabitants of Campan against those of Bagneres. went on till 1892. But there is a third, also begun in 1254, and by the same Campan folk against four villages in Aneau. which is still going on. All these suits are contests about forest rights and pasture rights.
