S vamsboro, Ga., Oct. 10—The ’ latter part of this week of superior court has been taken up in the (trial of appeal cases of ttie Geor gia and Florida railway against various parties.

Counsel for the defendant made a motion for a new t rial, These cases are really between i the citizens committee of Swains boro and these parties, since the committee here, in order to in duce the Georgia and Florida rail way to come by this city, agreed to donate $25,000 to the construc tion fund and to obtain the right of way for the new line. By some unfortunate method used in ; obtaining t liese rights of way or ■ for some other reason they were | most of them obtained at exorbi tant prices, lienee these appeals.
