THE EXPRESS,

-
what I have mentioned. When I was changing my clothes,
before leaving, 1 did not ask for more ale. 1 went to Mr.
Hastings ea groom of the chamber, but afterwards I
was his bulgur. Vaud I call the tea was scold dinner with
tea on the sideboard. In the evening there was to be •
tenants' ball in the servants' ball. My room was clops to
the halL I saw Mrs. Chalmen. Her husband is • hanker
anal • magistrate, and also the factor of Lord Bal-
loon. 1 remember Mrs. Chalmers going up to the
drawing-room after tee. I recollect on coming down
stain, having slightly stumbled against her. I have no re-
collectiou of Mr. Chalnicrs asking me to show Mrs. Chal-
mers to the drawing room. Ido not know 11111. Chalmers,
but I assume that she is the lady who was the only stranger
present. I might have announced • lady as Mrs. Chalmers,
but I Lave no recollection of having done so. I
know I did not say anything to her. I did not
fall at full length on the stairs, nor fall at all.
Within two or three minutes after Mrs. Chalmers went into
the drawing-room Lord Paltoun came to me. I used an
offensive expreesion to Mr. Chalmers. I said be was just
the man for • dirty job, and that he was engaged in a bus'.
ness which just suited him. (Laughter.) This was when
he seized rne by the arm in the dieing-room.l do not re.
collect his advising me to go away quietly. I did not fall off
my chair in my room, nor try to force Mr. Chalmers out of
the room, and close the door. I was fearfully excited at
the unjust treatment I had received, and cannot recollect
ell that passed. I did not shake my fist in Mr. Chalmer's
face. When Kennedy came I did not seize him by the
whiskers.

This was the case for the plaintiff.
Mr. Bovill addressed the jury on the part of the defence,
I and cootended that the misconduct of the plaintiff was
such as to justify his removal by force from the house.
Lord Belton examined said —I told the plaintiff when he
came to Philwortb, as I tell every other servant who enters
my service, that it be ever got drunk I should not
I allow hint to remain half-an-hour in his situation.
I until this occurrence be was an excellent servant,
and understood his duties perfectly. At the tea-dinner
after the wedding he bent over to speak to me several timee.
His voice was thick and husky, and did not articulate well.
Though I had some suspicion all was not right I thought
he might he able to go oa. About $ is, the evening I was
in the passage and heard Mabe's voice on the drawing/-
room stairs. He said "Don't be frightened, the stain
are dark and *anew, bet I'll take care of
fool!." He mid thus to a familiar and
way, sad I thought at first he was
to we of the maid servants. Ho was
If= by Mrs. Chalmers, who seemed much
aMenished, sad rather frightened. I rid, "Don't be
afraid, Mrs. Chalmers. take my arm, and I'll conduct
you to the thawiscroom." Mahe had at this time thrown
epee the cbrawlacreom door and catered before us. He
