   Doe, C. J.

Since the trial, district No. 3 has been abolished by c. 43, Laws 1885. The town district, being now the defendant in interest on the question of school-house location, should be made a defendant of record, and should have notice and an opportunity to be heard. The plaintiffs may move at the trial term for an amendment and notice; and the case is continued.

Clark, J., did not sit: the others concurred.
