the prosecution announced that there

MR.. BROOKS CASE.
At the time which had been appointed,
Mr.. Brooks appeared in Court and JUS
| tice Savage enquired of him whether he
could show good cause why be should
not be considered to have committed
contempt of court. Mr.. Brooks rose to
his feet and said:

to this courtroom because l wished to

Justice Savage said that while the
words used by Mr.. Brooks were rough in
the extreme, and their utterance GER
tainly constituted breach of decorum,
still, in view of the ample apology which
had been rendered and of the peculiar
circumstances which might naturally
have excited Mr.. Brooks wrath, he
would decide that Mr.. Brooks was purged
of contempt.
