member of the club, he was the son of most
eminent lawyer in his day, aud the club
had only the kindliest feelings toward him, de-
suite TIE sarcasm and the sneers OF Mr.. Condert

ize his position that the committee has prcjudgcd
this case" The Governing Committee had not
adopted the resolution Of expulsion and General
Cutting could still have full hearing on The
merits of the case. The court had no right to
interfere in the case, it rested purely with the
club. If il could interfere here, Jacob Sharp, If
a member of the club, might have invoked it
against his expulsion when in jail.
Mr. Coudcrt wound up the discussion with mild
sarcasm at ex-Judge Davis's laudation of the
Union Club, and a declaration that Jacob Sharp
could not have been expelled without hearing
as even he had rights, and he had had good reason
to appeal to a higher court. General Cutting did
not ask protection in wrong, but against
wrong.
The court took the papers.
