SOME REMARKABLE INCIDENTS IN AN In.
DEAHA DIVORCE TRIAr.-I7 the case Of Mug
sc!oan y. Muss:inau, suit for Divorce which
erose ia the Cssa Circuit Court of Indiana, aud
is reported 10 II lod. Rep, LOG, SOHO very 70
UaEs bic !De':.ens occurred during the trial o.
Tie cau3e 10 the lover court, as will be shown
III the tWo following rees DDS, among others, al
Legged as grounds fer new trial.
Toe 18th reason reads as follows
The court erred 10 smoking, ard permitting
Hon. u. ID. Pfatt and other attorneys to smoke
10 open court and during the trial Of said cause
by which tho plaintiff was prevented from haV
log Gair tia"
The 10 h reason reads: -
The court erred 10 sleeping or sitting With
!l' eyes closed, 10 open court, during the read
lag OF the written eviderce upon the part OF the
plaintiff, 10 said c,use. at the trial of said cause,
ty which the plaintiff was prevented from
having fair trial"
lnc Supreme Ceuft. 10 viewing these ras-
s0rs, says:
1T docs not appear that the appellant OBJ
leoted to smoking 10 curt, or that it had ans
Injurious effect upon him. We cannot see how
smoking la court prevented him from having
a fair trial.
The above reason for new trial is very
vague and Indefinite. If the appellant, who
was personally present 10 the court, was unable
to determine whether the Judge was really
asleep or only had bis eyes closed, how ere
We tc dcternilc? 1t is said to have occurred
while the appellant WIS reading his written
evidnnce.
III he had reason to suppose that the judge
was iuduleiGg ia gentle dozo after dinner he
should have suspended his reading CT awaken
ed the judge. We might reasonably conclude
that tae judge but initiated the example Of
many of the prcfouodest thinkers and most
Distinguished judges, snd closed his eyes that
he might hear the moro accurately, and more
July coupreheDdcd, what he heard. "-IAIa
