The pathway of the lawyer and the
Judge is usually a rough and thorny
one, interspersed with an occasional
'scene" that, while showing up a rich
vein of unsophisticated human nature,
creates amusement for all who are pres
sent, Court, Bar, and spectators. Such
a scene occurred in our Circuit Court

st .te vs.. Tempo Odear vas called,
ch ,rged with unlawfally retailing the

fresh from the mountain gorgcs, ap-
peared before his honor, Judge Hick-

Judge. don't deny the charge.
Some kind hearted lawyer suggested
that she might not fare so well by ac-
knowledging her guilt, but Tempo
grew more eloquent. She insisted on
her guilt, and told his honor it lay 10
his breast to do with her as he willed I;
and when asked why she dealt in the
crooked, her reply was, that she twas
hoHest and wanted to make al honest
living, and didn't want to come on The
county" Some member of the bar
suggested to the honorable Court that
a light fine. if any, be imposed, as she
had been in Jail for some time, and had
been punished enough for that small
