For the sake of securing greater promptness of publication, the Reporter has printed the cases in the order of decision, without reference to terms of court; and has indicated, in a line at the head of each case, the county in which it arose, the dates of the argument and judgment, and the judges present. When only one date is so given, the case was argued and determined on the same day. TABLE OF THE CASES REPORTED. . . 120 . . . Adams (Dodd v.) 398 Boston & Lowell Railroad Ahrend v.
