REGORD COURT, ENNISKILLEN.

SEDUCTION.-...GRAHAM V. WYLEY.

This was an action for seduction. Mr. Major, Q.C.,
stated the case. The parties were in humble but re.
spectable circumstances. Tile plaintiff was a farrwor,
who had a large family of daughters, of whom the sub-
ject of the present action was the eldest. Ile had
reared his family respectably, and they knew not what
sorrow or disgrace was until his eldest daughter mot the
defendant, who was•aito a farmer and miler, in com-
fortable circumstances, and who, by promises of mar-
riage and other stratagems, succeeded in seducing the
young woman, who gave birth-to a child.
Margaret Graham, a decent-looking young woman,
apparently about twenty-five years of ago, deposed, that
the defendant lived in the next townland, and that
she knew him fnr several years, but had no particular
intimacy with him until one day he met her at Maguire's
Bridge, when he brought her into Dunbar's Hotel,
and treated her to some punch, and told her that he
wanted to marry her, but that he could not do so un-
less she lived a little while with him first ; that the
reason of so many unhappy marriages was people get-
ting married without knowing each other properly ; she
believed him, and wet him in several places afterwards,
but when all was over be refused to marry her.

Mr. Justice TORRENS—ReaIIy this cannot be called
a case of seduetion. I would recommend the with-
drawal of a juror.
This was acceded to on the part of the defendfint,
and the unfortunate woman, who spoke in such a low
tone of voice that scarcely a word she said cold be
heard, almost fainted as she came down from the wit-
ness box.

ment also charged that the prisoner at the time of the rob-

notwithstanding his tender age, gave his evidence in a meat
