Plaintiff entrusted B. with certain moneys to be used in making a joint purchase of the interest of one W. in certain property, the value of which was not known, but B. was to pay for plaintiff's half whatever he paid for his own, not exceeding the amount entrusted to him. B. did not account, and plaintiff could not ascertain without investigation and inquiry whether B. so applied the whole amount or what the securities bought were. Held, That the facts justified a resort to equity and a decree for an accounting.-Marvin v. Brooks, 199. See EXECUTORS, &c., 12, 13; PARTNERSHIP, 6. ACTION.

Proof that the owner of lands adjoining a highway continually cultivated and mowed a portion of such highway, and used it for piling lumber, is insufficient to establish a title in him to that portion of the highway by adverse possession.-Bliss v. Johnson et al., 246. 2. The permanent occupation of a highway by inclosure or cultivation is manifestly inconsistent with the right of passage by the traveling public, and no matter how long continued can never ripen into a title as against the public, whatever may be its effect as to the owner of the soil of such highway.-Id. 3. In computing the period during which possession of lands adverse to the owner and 4. his heirs has continued, the term of a valid assessment lease of the premises, creating an outstanding term, must be deducted. The statute of limitations does not run against the owners during the term of such a lease, for the reason that they are not entitled to possession.-Not v, Carroll, 405. The possession of a tenant is the possession of the landlord not only during the term but presumably for twenty years thereafter, notwithstanding any claim by the tenant or his successor of a hostile title. To initiate an adverse holding the tenant must surrender possession to the landlord or do something equivalent thereto and bring home to him knowledge of the adverse claim.- Whiting v. Edmunds et al., 417. See EASEMENT, 2. AFFIDAVIT. See ASSIGNMENT FOR CREDITORS, 11; ATTACHMENT, 5, 7, 8; DEPOSITIONS, 3; SERVICE, 2, 5, 6; SUBMISSION; VENUE, 1, 4. AGENCY. 1. An agent who obtains goods upon credit for his principal by means of false representations, knowingly made, as to the financial condition of his principal, is himself liable in an action for fraud. Such action may be brought before the debt of the principal matures.-Phillips et al. v. Wortendyke, 876. See DISCOVERY, 2; FIRE INSURANCE, 6, 7; LEASE, 4; SURETYSHIP, 1-3; SURROGATE, 2. AGREEMENT.
