them to try the first suit of Moulton on
Miss Proctor's suit for libel, in which |
case both Beecher and Mrs. Tilton can
testify, while she cannot in the suit
against Beecher. Nobody doubts that
Moulton will be badly beaten on the Ii
bel suit, which would discredit him as |
witness against Beeeher. hence the Til

to postpone the case.. The dignity end |
strenth of Beecher's counsel in yester-

toms charge of desire to eyade the trial

prudent advisors kis counsel have not
the right to omit any safeguards in
dealing with the unscrupulors.
