juror was liquor dealer, and having
obtained permission to transact some

sheriff, he visited various customers, pa
tronized his own calling too literally
ana under the relaxing influence of the
liquor his tongue was too free III its
discussion of the Stokes case, The Juror
visited ruin holes and faro holes and
other disreputaBle places. for which of
fences he was hauled up before the
judge who tried Stokes, and the Judge
sent him to Jail for contempt of court.

ectors wanted him to resign the Presi-
dency, but the position he took was sim
liar to that of Congressman Lamison
when his constituents preferred II SINH
lar request, though :Stoekwell's refusal
may not have been so emphatieally ex-
pressed. The Directors propose flank
ing him by declaring the Office of Presi-
