examined before Recorder Genos yesterday-and
there being no evidence that the meeting was for
any other object than religious worship they were

Charge Of Assaulting a Watchmqn-John Hovy
and James NJ. Brewer were arrested on Saturday
night for fighting and disturbing the peace, and an
additional charge was preferred against the first
mentioned individual of striking Waterman j. Dun
ning when he attempted to arrest him. They gave
security to appear. Growing out of this case was
another charge against George Murray, George
Mayne, and James II. Smith for interfering with
Waterman Dunning in the discharge of his duty
when arresting Hoyy and Brewer on Circus street.
and an additional charge against Murray Of striking
the Waterman. All three were discharged without
having the testimony offered for the defence, and
by what leaked from the prosecutor himself when
on the stand, the presumption the prisoners were
interfering to prevent Dunning from continuing to
kick Mr.. HOvy, who was intoxicated and lying on
the ground at the time the offence was alleged to
have been committed.
