THE LIQUOR LAW.
The Rights Of all Parties I'm Cases
of Action for Damages under
our present Liquor Laws De-
fined BY Judge ROthrOck.

In the Jones county District Court
at its recent sitting. Mrs. Nancy Jew
ett, Of Monticello, brought action
against l.. Waenshare, saloon keep
er of that place, for damages on ac-
count OF liquor sold her husband. The
jury awarded 1920, Of which 300
was for exemplary damages" The
following were Judge Rothrock's in
structions-e covering the entire law
more fully than anything we have
seen:
GentteDen Of J,uy.
lst. The right OF action in cases Of
this kind exists by reason of the stat
ute which has been read to YOU
Without he statute no action could
be maintained by the wife for the in
juries which are complained of in this
case. 1t is conceded that the plaintiff
is and has been for several years, the
wife of 5. Jewett. 1t is conceded
that they have lived together in that
relation. The plaintiff claims that for
some time prior to the commencement
OF this suit, her husband became ad-
dicted 10 the excessive use of in,oxi-
eating liquors, producing drunken
ness by reason Of which she claims
that she has been greatly injured in
her means of support and also in her
property, and that such drunkenness
was produced by intoxicating liquors
sold by the defendant to the husband
Of plaintiff.
I'd. On his the defendant takes is.
sue, and it is incumbent on the plain
tiff to establish the facts necessary to
recovery by preponderance of ev-
idence.
3D.. This is an action Ia the nature
of personal injury, and the defend
ants liability, if any, extends to the
sales (if any) made for the period next
preceding the commencement Of the
suit, and he suit was commenced on
the 16th day OF Nov. 1874.
4th. Before the 1st day of Septem.
Der, 1873, the law of this State per-
mitted the sale Of beer and ale, and
wine manufactured from fruits grown
in this State, to all classes of persons.
Since the adoption of the code Of
1873, which took effect Sept. lst,
1878, parties may recover for injuries
sustained from intoxication produced
by reason of the sale Of the above
named kind of liquors to persons who
are intoxicated, or in the habit Of be-
coming intoxicated. the same as drunk
enness produced by any kind of in
toxicating liquors.
9Th. The defendant denies the al
legged sales, and also insists that for q
part of the time the plaintiff herself
authorized the sale of liquor to her
husband. II the plaintiff did direct
the defendant to sell her husband
whatsbeer he wanted, and the defend
ant in good faith supposed that such
request was made Of her own free
will, there is no liability for any sales
made under these circumstances. But
if you find from the evidence that the
defendant knew that Jswett was .
habitual drunkard, and that the wife
only requested the sales to be made
under the restraint of her husband
