The Court room was crowded with
gaping spectators, listening with the
deepest interest to every word the poor
girl uttered as she told the oft repeated
tale of woman's trust, feelings, and
mans deceiving nature-and here we
are tempted to moralize a little. Why
is it that while the defendant was sur
rounded by friends and advisers, the
plaintiff lin this, as in other similar
casey was compelled to face the gaping
crowd and tell the story of her shame,
alone? Not a woman in the Don to
give HER a word of comfort or assur-
ance in her trials, or even to quiet her
baby while she was giving her testimo-
ny. Fortunately u amiablc deputy
Clerk, John Townsend, was equal to
the occasion, and took charge of and
cared for the baby in q manner that
won the approval of Court, Jury and
audience. But seriously, it is a re-
