q young lady across the street. Mra Sweeney, the
mother OF Bertha destined 70 seeing the splitting.
The defendant, Miss Anna Brodigan. testified that
Bertha had applied that daisy remark TO her. and
she spoke her (Bertha about It. and then she said
they were beneath her notice, but denied that she
spat on Bertha, saying that she simply turned and
spat on her own porch.
The court said that splitting was despicable
