The Burch Divorce Case.

The Chicago Journal graphically
describes the principal parties in the
Burch divorce case Of Mr.. b. the fol-
lowing. portraiture is drawn:
Mr.. Burch has bee" r--~e". a~.:-e
the entire trial. lie sits at the table
with his counsel and has taken copl-
Gus notes of the case. An unacqualnt.
ed spectator would take him for one
of the counsel. He maintains rigid
degree of impcrturbability and strong
expression of face, certain bulldog
ativencss as it were to fight out the
case to the bitter end without one
single relaxation or yielding towards
mercy. Upon ono occasion only, has
he exhibited any sign which might
prove an index to his feelings, which
was during the cross examination OF
| his gardener Charles Layton. A qucs-
ton propoundcd by Mr.. Bcckwith,
caused bitter snecring expression OF
the lips.
Hon. Erastus Corning promptly at
the hours opening, always accompa-
MICS Mrs. Burch aud her mother Mrs.
Turner who is dressed in mourning
and with scrupulous ncatness. Ac-
cording to the journal, Mrs. Burcl, as
her counsel stated in his opening, is
little lady" of slight figure, pale,
thin features, brown eyes, black hair,
with very sprishtly, vivacious and
intelligent countenancc. She pays
very close attention to the dispositions
and oral statement of witnesses, oc-
casionally assisting her counsel with
hints and corrections. Although the
target of many curious, she pays lit
tie attention to this, all her faculties
being engaged in the case. Much OF
the testimony required great nerve
upon her part to endure, and other
portions aroused great Indignation
Throughout the trial thus far, she has
charmed all with her lady like and
graceful dcmcanor. At her Temporal
nv home at Mr.. SINNERS she is alike
favorite and has enlisted the sympa.
thy and respect of the place.
Up to the present time, the tcstimo-
ny adduced must be regarded as 60
ing far towards giving the case to the
defendant, Mrs. B. Certainly the sym
pathies Of the public are generally
with her.
