the progress Of the suit Of Dr.. Pangburn
against DR.. H. G. Waterman, although pre-

time our last county fair. was in progress

been. This may haye been causedby his

at the moment Mr.. s. raised his head, turn

Mr., Sumner struggled several times to
rise from his seat, but he was evidently SO
much hemmed in as to be utterly incapable
Of rising until he had by a great effort torn
the desk from its fastenings, and ther
pitched forward insensible on the floor. =
