for the plaintiff in the Jume estate case, aud In the
course OF his remarks led his client TO seat in front OF
the jury-box and taking likeness Of Mime. Jume in
his hand, attempted 10 trace resemblance between the
two faces, especially when Bowen smiled.
Judge Hoar devoted considerable time TO the King
Henry book" and contended that there were no sus-
pcous circumstances attending its discovery and that
the record in 1t OF Bowens birth written by Major
BaIIou his reputed father Many of the plaintiffs wit
nesses were very old people, and IL was insisted there
that they not worthy OF credit when testify
ing to things which occurred during their earlier years
but according theories OF all standard intellectual
PHILOSOPHERS, elderly persons recolect with great dis
tinctness what occurred in their youth -.
After the Judge H0ar said that Mr. Bowen ala
not desire TO any portion OF the Junel estate
purchased by the city; any OF the money left by
Mime. Jumel 10 the JOneses and TO charitable insttu
tiona. Mr. Bowen he added, would make, II desired,
written stipulation 60 that effect.
Mr. OCOnor laughed derisyely at this statement and
opened his reply by paying tribute to Judge Hoats
Integrity and ability and referring to the superiority
of struck jury" lie then described at length the
manner In which the estate had been inherited, claimed
that Nine. JumeIs remarks during her ALLEGED insane
period should not be regarded rejecting opinions
