Bradley has already made An interesting
record. Two long tables were ranged across
the bar in front of him. Behind the first sat
the plaintiff and her lawyers, and behind
the second the defendant and his, and as the
eyes of the spectators ranged from one TO
the other it was noticed that she occasion
ally turned square around and glared upon
him with look which in our minds fully
justified his appeal to Colonel Moore. chief
of police, for protection against her pocket
pistol.
A Picture Of the Defendant.
Colonel Breckenridge is Sc years old and
looks every day of il and more. Every hair
Of his head and his beard is Of dead white
not white like snow. but rather like well
bleached tow. His eyes are seemingly of .
blush gray. but very dull at present and
almost concealed by heavy and dropping
eyelids. His forehead is quite low and
broad, his nose a fine aquiline, and his
broad face is almost red. In form he Is so
heavy as to look quite awkward. with shout
ders like buffalo, and is generally heavy
limbed and stocky.
Directly to his left the form Of Ben But
terworth attracted much attention. He is
also heavy man. but far more shsp ely and
active. In fact. he is the active man Of the
defense on questions of law. Against him
as the active man in law stood Cslderon
Carlisle, heavy built and rudy man, with
an attractive manner and appearance
Messrs- Shelby and Stoll are comparatively
young lawyers Of Lexington. Ky The
well known Colonel Phil Thompson Of
Kentucky completes the roll al that table.
