soMn scribbler in the Herdld last

SOME scribbler in the Herald last
week. either DUNCAN or Du Halfway, attempted
to give a report of the case of Kell er vs.. NcNa-
mcr, in the Probate Court. The scribbler says:
'In his argument Mr. Mackley read q dissent
ing opinion of one Of the Judges of the Supreme
Court of the State of Ohio. pretending it was the
decision of the Court, when in fact the decision
Of the Court was directly opposite. fh
To show that the above is not true It Is on "
necessary to state that we distinctly and emphat-
ically read that portion of Judge Ranneys opin-
ion in which he said that majority Of his Jreth-
ren differed trih him. ..tt
We read Judge Ranney's opinion because he
was Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Ohio
at the time he delivered the opinion, and because
he was an eminent jurist, and good Democratic
authority. rr.-..,,r
Neither DUNCAN nor Du Halfway had sense
enough in that trial to know the difference be-
tween character and reputation, and because we
exposed their ignorance, they seek revenge by
