The Chief Justicr and his Associates were
promptly in their seats at 10 O'Clock this
morning and as SON as Court opened Mr..
spruance commenctd d his argument in the
trespass case now on trial
He first addressed the Court, and quoted
large number of authorities 10 show that
the plaintiff was entitled TO receive damages
to the full amount of the crop, and after
speaking about one hour opened his argu-
ment to the jury.
He spoke Of Mr.. Banks as strictly hon
est, but extremely shrewd man, who always
looked out + himself in making bargain,
and never allowed any one to get the better
OF him.
II Mr.. Banks had not bought this farm
this suit would never have been brought, for
John Mcfarland, the former owner, and
who had T, nted the place to Clark knew thai
way-going crop always belongs to the
tenant, and he had the right assured him by
law TO return and gather his crop
After Mr.. Spruance had spoken fol
another hour, he took his seat and was fol
lowed by Mr.. Cooper, who commenced bi
argument by calling the attention of tn
Court to a number OF authorities bearing ol
the case.
Mr.. Cooper had not finished at l o'clock
when court adjourned until o'clock thi
