4 witness, of dancing up to them when

the magistrate look which might have
meant marriage or murder, just as the re-

female witnesses confessed that she had
thrown some water on him, but it Was "nO
more than any other lady would nave done
under the same circumstances, and that
she would do it again under the same
proyocation." Tie other said the accused
