The Daily Law Reporter Of Cleveland
reports a remarkable forensic ettorl, as
follows:
The case of Cstharlns Barrett vs.. The
City Of Cleveland, which was tried be-
fore Judge Mckinney few days ago,
was an action for the recovery Of $5,OOO
damages for personal injuries received
by the plaintiff caused by falling into an
excavation on S.. Clair street, and YER
dict of $500 was awarded her, which
was the result, no doubt, Of the model
argument OF the plaintiffs counsel. The
aforesaid ergcment has been a source Of
great interest to the local bar, and de-
serves to be handed down to the coming
generations If "lawsmiths." We regret
that we are unable to publish but an ab-
stract of this remarkable 0rat0rlcal
gem, which Is as follows:
"Gentlemen of the jury: dy client Is a
woman, an Old woman. Thank GOD foT
that. Gentleman, presume that come
Of you had mothers. Iguess you did, at
least did, but | did not have but one. |
tell you what it Is, it Is big thing to
be born Of mother. Mr., Brinsmade dare
not, no, gentlemen, he dare not take any
exception to that. Gentlemen, many
years ego, when the dark, gloomy and
forbiddlDg forest, reared by Gods hand,
covered this now blooming and bOun-
teOus land from the Atlantic to the Pa
citic,s little bark, fleeing from the esword,
the fsgOt aud the persecution of bloody
tyrants, boldly pushed out rom the
shores Of the old world, breasting the
angry waves of a more angry ocean On
her deck stood fearless and resolute
captain In bare arms, crown Of glory
wreathiDg his lovely temples, and his
grey locks flowing In luxurious wild
ness to the salted yet untempered breeze
Gentleman, let Mr., Br:nsmade object to
that II he dare, for tell you that little
craft had in her swelling bosom little
mustard seed Of liberty. She rose
and fell on Ocean's billOws, yet
through storm and tempest she
struggled on and on till Americas
frOwniDg coast looked her In the face.
On the coast she laDded-yes, gentle
men, she did--snd planted that little
mustard seed upon that inhOspitable
coast. 1t took root and grew, and Is still
growing. 1t IL now large tree, and un-
der Its star sDaDgled branches lies my
old client with her broken ribs. Come
now, boys, rally around that old mustard
seed, let the villa. waves tTemble, let the
old earth rock with cOnVulsiODs but
amidst II all remember, oh, remember,
that my old, broken, sore and wounded
client has some interest In that same
old mustard seed"

ground that he is an offensive Republican partisan
From the Rockland Opinion it appears that this is
strictly family affair Hon. Charles A. Spodorl
was appointed collector for the Castine district
last spring He i. Democrat Of COURSE His
brother, William IL. ii. Spof'ord, who is Il Repub-
lcan, was deputy collector at Deer Isle and has
been retained in that office SINCE although the peo
pie OF the town of both parties have petitioned
with practical nnanmity foI the appointment of
George W. Spolford, third brother ana a Mug
wump. 1t is said that the collectors reason for
not appointing George is that he is a municipal
officer and therefore ineligible That obstacle
might easily be removed by Georges resignation,
but he has preferred to keep his town Office while
William still collects import taxes at Deer Isle
This three cornered family seems well designed
for office holding, one corner or the other must
