Excerpt from In the Supreme Court, 1881: Wellwood Reynolds, Plaintiff Vs. William Ditchman, Defendant; Papers for Argument, Fred J. Tremaine, Plaintiff's Atty., Robt. Sedgwick, Defendant's Atty Gross-examined by Mr. Harrington - I was only once at the house liefere it was removed three or four days. It was not hanked. The wall around the cellar was not level on the tep. The house did not rest on any part of it but the corner stone. There were two or three inches of a difference in the level. The Wall was on one side of the projecting timber and loose stones on the other. The wall was not as high as the timber. The sill rested on the timber. At the corner opposite the cellar were loose stones. I saw no built stones there. I went to examine and see if the sills were rotten. When the house was removed the blocks were embedded in the soil two or three inches. Wm. Holman, sworn - I live near the property in question and superintended the moving of the house. I saw the house before it. Was raised. ()n the south-west corner a wall existed, extending north 11 feet, and west 9 leet under the sill. I will not swear whether the house rested on that wall. On the west end there was a block of wood. I cannot. Say what was under the north-west corner. Under the middle of the north end there was Wooden block. In the rest of it there were stones laid in. I would not swear that. It was underpinned. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
