Description
This is an action under G. L. 4219, as amended by No. 112, Acts 1921, to recover the expense incurred in providing for the care, maintenance, and support of James Learie, Sr., an alleged pauper. Judgment was rendered for the plaintiff upon an agreed statement of facts. The defendant excepted. [1] There are eight exceptions to the judgment, but, as the defendant says in its brief, they all involve, directly or indirectly, only one point, and that is the claim that the agreed statement does not make it to appear that James Learie, Sr., was a poor person in need of assistance. This was requisite to the plaintiff's right to recover. The law is thus stated in City of Montpelier v. Town of East Montpelier, 94 Vt. 62, 108 Atl. 704: ""To entitle one to public aid under G. L. 4219, two conditions must exist: He must be a poor person; and he must be in need of assistance. One may be poor and not need assistance; and he may need assistance and not be poor. It is not enough, under the section specified, that one of these conditions exists; both must be shown.""
