An ESeLIsHMAN's LEssog IN AMERICAN LAW
George Bunter, an Englishmen, has been
in this country but three weeks. He came to
this city few days ago and met some of his
countrymen who are employed here as coach
men. Last night Bunter started out with two
of his friends and about midnight they were on
10Th street. There they met Charlie Bruce, the
hackman. "Can you take us where we can get
some feed?" one of them asked. Certainly"
replied the hackman. The three men got in
the carriage and were driven to DeAtleys,
where they remained until about two O'Clock.
One Of them left the saloon and the others were
about to give the hackman the slip. but he
made them get in the hack. wen jump out
and skip" said one of them. Bruce was on
the lookout for them, however. He started
toward the first precinct station, and when
turning 18th street corner the men jumped out
of the carriage, breaking the door and glass.
Bruce gave chase aud succeeded in capturing
Bunter. Not having 50, the amount of fare
charged, Bunter was locked up and taken to
the Police Court this morning in the .smaria. -
When the case was tried he claimed that Col.
Bonaparte's coachman hired the hack and was
responsible for the hire. Judge Miller told
him that it was unfortunate for him that Col.
Bonaparte's coachman was not in court, and re-
on the farm.
