This action is brought to recover damages for an
assault and battery committed by the diff. on the
female Ilf The alleged offence was perpetrated
in Alma where the parties lived, some three years
ago. 1t appears from Mr. Clay's opening argu-
ment that Longfellow went with an officer to the
house where plfs. lived, to collect an execution
against Mrs. Averill's father and mother; that
while there he seized gold watch the property
of Mrs. Aver.l, and refused to give it up until his
execution was satisfied. Thereupon struggle
ensued for the possession of the watch, in which
the plfs hand was badly hurt, and has never recov
e-ed to this day. On the other hand the diff fatty
denies the assault and conroverts all the material
circumstances attending the collision as related by

essential particular was conflicting. The trial is
