issue raised and the court directed the 

 jury to find a verdict that Mr. Palmer 

 was entitled to the peremptory writ of 

 mandamus. The matter then came be- 

 fore Justice Pound on an application 

 for the appraisement. In his decision 

 he says: 



"The commissioner had no facts be- 

 fore him upon which he could decide 

 that every plant was infested with 

 gipsy moth. He could, on the facts, 

 only decide that there was reasonable 

 ground to believe that they were so 

 infested. Destruction without com- 

 pensation is the rule where the facts 

 may be shown with certainty. In 

 other cases an appraisal should be had. 

 So ordered." 



Some time prior to October 16, 1911, 

 Mr. Palmer had received a shipment 

 of azaleas and rhododendrons from 

 Belgium and they were at his green- 

 houses in Lancaster. October 16 two 

 inspectors from the state department 

 of agriculture visited the greenhouses 

 and found an egg-mass of the gipsy 

 moth on one plant and evidence that 

 another plant had been similarly in- 

 fested. They telegraphed to the de- 

 partment asking for instructions and 

 some days later got telegraphic in- 

 structions to destroy the whole ship-
