NORTH CAROLINA WITNESSES. 1t must be
confessed they sometimes meet with rare
specimens Of human nature in some of the
courts of North Carolina. Almost every
body remembers the celebrated .'Cousin
Sally billiard" case-and here is one recent
| ly reported in the Ashville Spectator
far behind it. The writer gives it under
the head Of
Legal p Proceedings.-Action for work and
labor done in cutting ditch on defendants
land. Plea: Payment and set off, in bacon
and corn meal aa
Plaintiffs s son on the stand-recollects the
the ditching perfectly, but seems to forget
all about the bacon.
"You say your daddy did all this ditch
ing? Do you know what he got in pay for
it? inquired Col. G. for defendent.
''He never got nothing, as ever I heard
on that's what he never got" answered the
witness.
''Didn't your daddy get corn and bacon
from defendant in pay for that ditching?''
''Never heard of his gettin' no corn or
bacon"
"What did your daddy and his family live
on last summer?"
'Vittles, mostly"
'What sort of victuals ?" ;F
"Well, meat and bread, and some whis-
key"
s'Where did he get that meat and bread?
We'll, fust from one and fust from the
other"
Didn't he get tsome of it from defendant"
''He mought.' 5
II know he mought, but did he ? that's
the question"
"Wel, he mought, and then again you
know he moughtn't."
with considerable excitement and in
tones of thunder "Answer the question,
and no more of this triAing with your oath.
Did your daddy, or did he not, get corn and
bacon from the defendant for ditching?
"Well, he mought; it didn't occur ad-
zactly, you know"
Here his honor interferes, and with a stern
judicial frown, addresses witness thus:
"Witness, you must answer the question,
or the court will be compelled to deal with
you. Can't you say yes or no?''
Il reckin." /.
3Wen then, answer yes or no. Did or
did not your daddy get corn and bacon from
tho defendant at the time referred to ?" in
quired tho Court. -
Now, fully aroused and conscious of his
danger: ''Well, Judge, I can't adzactly
remember, you know, seein' as how it's all
dun, bin gone and eat up; but" (planting
himself firmly as one determined to out with
it, ''to the best of my reckerlectshun, if my
memory serves me right. he mought, and
then again he moughtn't"
The plaintiff saved his bacon. Verdict
accordingly.

''Well George" asked friend of young
lawyer, chow do you like your profession?'

than my practice"

A militia officer in Texas boasts, through
