When a deed is nut in evidence

j Marshall vs. W. N, C. R. R
j I.' .Where the State is a stockhol
der in a railroad company, it is bound
by the provisions of the charter in
the same manner as an , individual.
It has no advantage as a ' stockholder
on account of its sovereignty, for by
becoming such it lays aside its char
acter as sovereign, and places itself
on a footing of equality with the in
dividual stockholders.
2. The property of a corporation
belongs to it, and not to the stock
holders. They only have aa interest
ip such property through their rei,;
tion to the company, and in this re-,,
spec! the State is like any ; other
stockholder, So, where an act of the
general assembly provided for a sale
of the State's ' interest in a railroad
company in which the State was a
stockholder it was held to be only a
sale of the stock. ,
( 3. Whether such, sale would vest
in the purchasers of the State's stock;
all the powers , and privileges which
the charter of the-eompany nad con
fprred on the State ;ruaere?

provides that m a certain contingen
cy, the stockholders of an existing

provides for the stockholders in ' the .
existing corporation by reserving' a
certain amount oi the stocs ior tnem
hi the corporation to be formed.-cre-
atea a new corporation, and is not
an amendment to the charter of the
one already in existence. In such
case it is ' immaterial " that the new
corporation jm called by the same
same as toe otu one. - .

as a color of title, he must prove that
its boundaries cover the land in dis

I remember UDoh ' one Voccasion
that Boyton was called upon, b the
frantic cries for help of a; man ; who
had gone oey ona - nis ' aeptn . ana
plunged into the- breakers,- followed
by a 8urt-boat. .;; rne ireacnerous un
dertow, setting strongly seaward
had caught the . unfortunate swlm-
mer. and be was being rapuy carried.
out of the reach of assistance. Boy-"
ton seized him just as he . was about
to sink for the last time, and nauiea
him aboard the boat.. The man .was
utterly exhausted and it was nearly
an hour before he was fully, restored ;
he took off his bathing suit, dressed
himself and then with rare magnan
imity took from his ' Vest pocket a
fifty cent note ' (silver half dollars
were not as ptentif ul then , as now)
and handed it to Boyton saying.
I "I owe you my. life, sir, and I hope,
you will call upon me whenever you
want a favor. Take this money and
treat your self andyour assistants to
a good stiff drink. -You certainly
must be chilled through."
. Boyton is of Irish extraction and
as quick-witted as Philpot Curran.
1 1 think you have made a mis
take," he said. "You put too much
value upon your life. Permit me to
give you your change," and before
the crest-fallen miser knew what to
reply Boyton thrust into his hand for
ty nine cents in pennies, three cent and
ten-cent notes. "I will keep this note
as a souvenir of the value of a human
life," said Paul, coolly puttiug it
into his pocket. He has it to this
day.

which to carry out his threat of tak

made the open threat that if the de;
feedant did not kill him that
