trap to catch a cunning fox which had
been annoying him considerably by its
midnight visits among the poultry. At
fourteen successive visits to it he found
the trap sprung, a stick of wood be-

The circumstance, SO often repeated,
surprised him. There were no other

was question that puzzled him sorely.
By continuing to rebait his trap he

witness for the defense gave the name
of Dan Harrington. District-Attorney
Lindsay, on the watch for points as to
credibility, asked the witness if he was
related to the defendant in, any way.
The witness answered that he was
"sorto' related" On being pressed for
an answer as to the exact relationship
existing between them, he said they
were I" first and second cousins. :"
While Lindsay was trying to compre-
bend what kind of relation that was,
whether of blood or marriage, or 9th,
Col. Taylor, defendants counsel, asked

they were first and second cousins.
