Allen was engaged as counsel in

for trial he failed TO put IN an APP
pearance. The lawyer on the 9th
err side was unwilling, however, to
take any advantage Of the Tupelo
statesman. and at his suggestion the
Judge continued the case till the
next term, with a caution to Aliens
client TO be sure and have that gen.

arrived, and The case in due order
was called, but still Mr. Allen did
not put in an appearance. The
old farmer said Allen was in town.
and at the suggestion Of the oppos-
ing counsel The court agreed 20
pass the case informally and take
it up later in the day, while the
unfortunate client went out to hunt
his derelict counsel, lie spent
the morning in earnest pursuit OF
Allen, but the gentleman couldn't
be found, aud when the case was

was taken against Aliens client.
