quently appeared and said that during the progress
of events which led to the arrest of Love- he
consulted by and gave advice to the government Off
cials which, perhaps, places him in position not al
together impartial But, however that may be, he
felt that the rights of the prisoner would be better
protected and certainly the spirit of the Judiciary
better maintained if the respondent had counsel not
so familiar with the history of the and the evil
dence which the government expects to adduce
