Town of New London v. Town of Montville
Connecticut Superior Court · Decided March 15, 1790
1 Root 184
Town of New London v. Town of Montville

Opinion of the Court

Demurrer to the declaration — Judgment that the declaration is insufficient; and by the court; it appears by the plaintiff’s own showing that it was not originally the duty of the defendants to pay said debt, but of a certain part of them, viz. those only who were taken from New London, and nothing appears whereby said town of Montville have assumed this debt; their appointing a committee to settle with New London did not amount to an assumption.
