Mrs. Day, who appeared to be nervous and excited, testified that her husband is away at work.* Last evening about 7:30 o'clock she sent a little girl to the drug store for medicine.

He said he went in the store to inquire about Mr. Sullivan; that the woman became frightened and screamed, and he left. Mr. Carrington said that the defendant was a man of excellent character, and called wit- neases to prove it. Mr. Shillington said that while he did not know Mr. Mey. he had no doubt but that he was a man of good reputation. Judge Miller in disposing of the case said that Mr. May was guilty of the assault charged. He did not think there was anything to show that Mr. May intended to harm the woman. He had been drinking, but yet he must be held responsible for what he did.
