CASE OF slAspER AND Tx.rArs.-Esther
Comley. living in Psncader Hundred, appeared
| before EsQuire Frazer. . few drys ago, and
charged one Thomas Wilson with making asssr.
lions damaging to her character. ana also threat
.ning to do her bodily injury. The trial came tf
&c the Esquire's ofics this morning. From the
evidence produced it appears that Wilson came 10
| he house some time ago, and in conversation with
| ner sister. spoke of Esther in . very sliehtine
manner, accusing her Of keeping company with
married men. Esther happening to overhssr him,
Indignantly "denied the soft impeachment" when
he made violent threats against her. Tho wit
nesses also proved that Esthsr's character and
reputation were unsuied. and after the hearing
Esquire Frazer fined Wilson the costa of the case,
- %, and required him 10 give bail in the sum OF
800, TO keep the peace. Wilson is q married man
and old enough to know how to act with proprie-
". and this lesson will doubtless cause him TO act
respectfully, in the future. towards young ladies
