Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

The demand made on the part of the town of Sidney, when the notice was given, was satisfied by the overseers of Augusta taking the charge of the pauper. When he again became chargeable to Sidney, a new notice was necessary ; and, as none was given, this action cannot be supported.†

Plaintiffs nonsuit.

Hallowell vs. Harwick, 14 Mass. Rep. 186. — Walpole vs. Hopkinton, 4 Pick. 358.
