Knox, the counsel for respondent, proposed ‘to waive o' jury, and admit tho Lnstardy, Lut - claimed that, 'in this , caso no judgmont ‘should be rondorod | ngainst respondent on the ground that’ the cuso was_res ndjudicata, Although thg nction of bastardy was clothed with somo of "tho fenturos of a criminal -cosgin its procoedings, still it bad been decided by the E\xgmmo Court that this was essentially . eivil notion. This belug eo, liko all civil actions, it could bo compromised or settled as tho partios should see fit. “That in this caso ho would show the Court, by many witucssos, that sinco tho birth of tho child large dpn{moms, amounting to now 8500, Lad boen wade by respondent for, tha support and maintenanco of camplnlnlng it~ nouw, her mother, and the child, That in fact more had been pald than the law would compel rospondent to pay.

That these pay- ments wero eolicited by complaining witneas sod accopted on the implicd agroement that it wasa full sativfaction fer lor injury, if any. .

However, ‘ho_ thought that such poymonts a8 bLed “been made during tho past year should ~proporly apply on the %100, which .tho Court was authorized to impose for the firat year nfter tho birth of the child. The rospondent bad a cloud of witnesses to prove lnrgo amounts of moncys paid, and it npgunrln boyond doubt that muoh more than the $100 ha beon é)uid and tho benofit obtained by thio child, ibo Court ordered the rospondent to pay the sum of 318 for tho firat yenr, and €50 per year in quarterly paymonts for tho.statutory poriod.
