The CorviSc was the sjstoni under which *ho Sciifneurs or the conimunity, were entitled to a certain amount of manual labour from tenants or ccnsitaires for the maintenance of roads and bridges.

If the trial of the contestation is not concluded at the close •of the term of the court to which the petition was presented, the sit- ting judge must continue it without intenruption during the vaca- tion, adjourning from day to day until he delivers his final judgment upon the merits of the contestation. 381. If the judgment annuls the election of the local councillors or any one of them, without stating who should fill such offices, the court must in the same judgment order a new election to replace the councillore whose appointments are ao annulled, name for that object a person to preside at such election, and fix the day and hour upon which a meeting of the municipal electors is to be held.

Of the amount of labour wliich each muse contribute ; •1. Of the description of tools and implements required, which must be of the kind ordinarily ust'd by farmers in the municipality. if the work to be performed in common is, however, not sufficient in the opinion of the council, to justify the making of a call upon the rate payers interested, the road inspector may cause such work to l)e performed and the cost thereof to be paid in equal proportions by tlie rate payers interested in such work, as well as tho costs of tlio collection, which are taxed by the council.— R.

If the nature of the work demands it, he may require each of such persons to bring or to cause to be brought a certain number o£ horses or oxen, with proper harness, carts or plouglis, if he have them. Every day's labor of a horse or yoke of o.ven, with haniess, carts or ploughs, is credited to the person who brought the same, as one day's work. 384. It is the duty of the road inspector : 1. To direct and superintend the execution of all such work ; 2. To fix the hour of commencing and leaving of such labor, ami the time for rest and meals, so that the day may consist of ten clear hours of labor on the spot where the work is to be dome ; ;i.

He may at once fiU up the place of any person who has not attcnted at the hour appointed for labor, or who has bem dismissed at the costs of the person so in default ; such costs may be recovered by the substitute or by the inspector, in the manner prescribed for the. reooverj' of penalties imposed by this code. or ROAD WSPlcTOBi.

The penalties mentioned in the preceding article nmy Be paid to the pound-keeper before suit brought for their recovery. 442. In case of contestation, the damages occasioned by animals found straying are ascertained and determined by three experts appointed tia iello»-8 : one by the complainant, one by the omier of the animal, and the third by the two experts alretidy appointed. If the complainant or the owner of the animal is not present. his expert is appointed by the pound-keeper. If one of the parties, or in his absence, the pound-keeper, refuses to appoint his expert, he his appointed by a justice of the peace. These experts must be appointed summarily and without delay. on the demand of the owner of the animal or of the complainant. The experts at once proceed to view the damages and to render their judgment, which is final and conclusive. The amount of damages determined by them is recoverable, in case of refusal to pay the fame, in the same nrnnner as penalties imposi^d under this code. DMlslon. — Experts named to estahllnh datnaisra enuwd by straylns animals cannot compel the parties to submit to tbelr decision, unless the parties have agreed to do so. Tbe experts have only such authority within the conditions provided by Arts. 428, 429. 430 and 481 ; otherwise they have only the authority of witnesses. Latyitse vs. Delorme, 6 R. U, 210. 443. No one h entitled to compensation for dama,; s caused upon his land by stray animals, if such damages are occasioned by the absence or defect of his boundary fences. Dedalon. — In order to avail himself of this article the Defendant must not only show the bad condition of the Plailntlff s fences, but must show that the animals which caused -lie damage have passed through these fences, and that the Plaintiff was obliged to fence that locality. If the animals have passed through a place that nobody Is obliged to enclose, each neighbor Is responsible, Lacatte vs. Delorme, 6 R. L.. 210. 444. It is not necessary that animals fou-nd straying be impounded, to give rise to a right of action against the peraons permitting such animals to stray, for the penalty and damages occasioned. or POONO-KIIPtBS 115 ma^tektYnZ™!'""
