The Angel OF The Law.

The case of Margaret Wheeler VS.. ID.
L. Wheeler ct al, involving property to
the value of about fifty thousand dollars,
and decided in favor of the plaintiff, was
recently tried in Huron county, occupy
ing five days in the testimony and two
days in the argument. G. T. Stewart,
of Norwalk, and Geo. Wiley, of Cleye-
land, spoke for the plaintiff, j. M. Root,
of Sandusky, and R. P. Ranney. of Cleve-
land, for the defence. Mr.. Stewart closed
the argument of the case with the fol-
lowing beautiful appeal and tribute to
the Chancery system:
.sMayitp lease your Honor: Ever sincel
opened a law-book, have loved to con-
template the principles which lie OH the
equity side of courts. 1t has seemed as
if light shone down on them from above.
as an impersonation of the most glorious
and benignant elements of government
This whole chancerysys appears tome
! like an angel of light, divinely beautiful,
the Angel Of the Law. He goes not in
the path of the stern messengers of JUS
tice, but he chooses, he loves the walks
of mercy. When the cold, freezing Ian
guage of the common law is. Trust
not, for if you believe and are betrayed,
there is no help for you''-this Angel Of
n higher law says: Trust, believe !!
Have faith in God aud faith in one an
other. will defend, will enforce hu-
man trusts" Hetakes up little children
in his arms and says: Il will be
father to the orphan" He takes the
rnourner by the hand and says: will
protect the widow" He goes to the
house of mourning, and there, where the
Death Angel stands, by his side stands
the Angel Of the Law. And when the
roken-hearted bereaved one lifts her
eyes from the pale face of the dead
TO the living faces around her, and
pleads to them for the sympathy,
tile strength and support which she
has lost, that Angel looks on all
with stern and watchful eyes, and says:
.Beware! Beware how you abuse her
i trust. Beware how you seek to speculate
in her weakness and her woes. For if
you dare to wrong her, there is no web
of wickedness which you can weave, but
i will rend it asunder. There is no spot
so dark in all this guilty earth, where
you can hide, but my eye will search.
my arm will reach you. May 1t please
yonr Honor, we come to you to-day, as
the dispenser of justice and of mercy.
You now sit in the seat of the Chancel-
Tor, and you bear those powers which
the highest civilization and the noblest
philanthropy of the world. for
many ages, have delegated to courts of
justice for the protection of the widow
and the orphan. We bring to you the
widow, stricken with years and bowed
with wrongs, and we invoke for her
those golden rules and those shining
precedents which courts of equity have
prescribed for such as her. We bring
with her the men who have wronged
her, who have violsted the solemn
friendship of the dead and the sacred
faith of the living; and we ask for her
that need of justice, of wisdom and
kindness which from your intellect and
( your heart, she is entitled to receive.
