known in the world, I ask for your attention; I
would not ask his Lordship's attention, for it would

prove is substantiated by a train of evidence. It
is impossible that it can be rebutted, when I chew
from circtioistanees that it did exist. If it is
proved that soy client did promise to pay for the
furniture, I wi:l submit, that my Learned Friends,
and myself, have disgraced ourselves, anti diet we
have set at defiance that education which we amid

Gentlemen of the Jury, will inform you, that if
there is not evidence sufficient against him, diet
he is is fit witness to be put in the boa to retina

I will lay before you, also, the evidence of Francis
Wright, by his answer in Chatteery ; and, if the
