Cousiderablo mcnoy had beon ataked ot the result, snd the partisans of each side wore wuplessantly agitated when tho hour fixed arnived, and the Judge dolsyod man- touco out of courtesy to tardy counsel. When cversthing was in roadiness, thioro waan deop lush, ‘Thera was not long to wsit, howsver. ‘I'ne Court, in the first fow srmtences, practically digposed of tho mattor, and putall out of misory.
