Skelly ap- pealed and regained his liberty on a {bond of $250 which was furnished by |George H. Pratt, Skelly's employer. Judge Coit's comment in imposing sentence was to the effect that he was inot to deal with Skelly for the con- |versation he used; Skelly must ex- plain that to the meén to whom he ad- dressed it. The car, the court said, |was going at a tremendous rate of speed and in the opinion of the court it is not-safe for cars to be driven 40 or 50 miles an hour, which is the speed of express trains, either day or night. The court remarked that Such ! driving was going te be discouraged if it was possible for that court to do 0 and the judge d he had no sym- athy for such drivers.
