Description

This is an action of contract in which the plaintiff seeks to recover for the care, treatment, and support of certain persons under and by force of P. L. 3926, which, so far as it applies here, reads as follows: "If a transient person is suddenly taken sick or lame, or is otherwise disabled and confined to any house in a town, * * * and is in need of relief, * * * the person at whose house he is, * * * shall be at the expense of relieving and supporting such person, until he represents his situation to the overseer of the poor of the town, * * * after which the overseer of the town so notified shall provide for his support; and, if the overseer neglects to provide for such support, the person so supporting him may recover therefor in an action of contract, on this statute, against the town so notified. "
