or course. 1t is rather early to estimate
but as there are only three parties ir
Jail whose cases can possibly come before
the court at this term, and as, If they al
did, they would not occupy much of thc
time OF the court, it will not take a great
, while to get rid of them. The other Grim
. ,inal matters are old and for the most par
unimportant ones, and II they should al
come to trial, which several OF them GER
, tanly will not, they would not altogether
, take up more than three days. OF tn,
, civil cases set for trial by jury there reall,
i Is not one of much consequence. and thu
! probability is that the civil docket will
drop down to only three or four cases b,
! the second day OF the term, so that 1t Il
pretty safe to say that the June tern
Will not last over two weeks even If tina
, long.
