rents a room in his premises to Jenny Goblet, free
woman OF color; that this Jenny having no respect
for the great temperance movement Of the age, is
in the habit (" Oh monstrous, doIefll thing ~ of
g drinking her brandy and water daily" and of
keeping suspicious characters about her, raising
occasionally all sizes of breezes and disturbing the
whole neghborhood; all in violation of an ordt-
nance to provide for public decency. Specially it
was proved against Jenny that St. Pierre COro-
lanus being in his yard the morning of Thurs
day, 2Sth nit, he was served with an artillery of
abuse by Jenny, who called him rascal, etc. Jen-
ny's conduct being proved against her, the Recor-
