ted that in the cause Of a recent trial in the
Police Court, in San Francisco, a point in
blank dispute was whether a certain woman
had called at a certain house on the night
before. One witness swore that she had, and
had remained seated in a chair by the bed OF
his wife for q half hour. Another witness
doth witnesses being men) swore that no
woman had been in the house designated for
twenty-four hours previous to the trial, ex-
cept the invalid and bed.ridden mistress Of
the household. 1t was suggested that 4 GER
tain well known lawyer in the city-formerly
D. W. P.-be sent for, and asked to imme-
diatcly visit the house where the dispute
grounded, and take q sit in all the chairs in
the bedroom, and give his opinion as to
whether there had been u woman in the sam
within the period specified. The proposition
was not made in open court rs II was Pc
rcmptorily rejected by eounse contending for
non~.attendance Of female, when 1t was hrst
whispered in his ear BY the attorney Tor the
other side the former acknowledging how
ever, that the evidence would be entitled 70
conclusive acceptance, II taken ana sworn
into the case. As d. W. P. was once an at
torney Of Virginia city record, we presume
this is \ fair subject for u local, though the
occurrence took place at San Francisco.
