A Max CUING • FINALS:
The plaintiff, a widower, is 67 years of age; and Mrs.
Case, the widow, alleged to have trifled with hie feelings,
about 60.
Mr. Watson opened the cue. The plaintiff had at one
time acquired connderable property, but in consequence of
railway speculations it had been diminished ; the defendant
owned the house in which she resided, and a few acres of
land. la September of last year, Mr. Kershaw made ad-
vances to Mrs. Cass. He (Mr. Watson) could not prove
what had taken plus on the first occasion, because the
plaintiff and defendant only were present; but there were
several meetings between the parties at which overtime of
marriage were made to Mrs. Case, which were well received,
as would be seen Dv a letter from Mrs. Cass to the plaintiff.
TMs had been written for her by her brother-it law a Mr.
Bose, a local methodist preacher, residing in the
hood.
