"He was healthy, sturdy boy, good
natured and smiling" said Mrs. Heath
when asked to describe him. "He had
large blue eyes and very light hair and

TESTIMONY AND EVIDENCE

During TIE trial Of the case of Breiten-
stein against Simmons to a Jury in
Justices court in Canton recently, Squire
J. H. Reigner commanded the particular
attention of those concerned when, In
delivering his charge to the intelligent
jury, he said: II wish now TO define to
you the difference and distinction be-
tween testimony and evidence. " Said
he, continuing, Testimony is what a
witness says. Evidence is only that
part Of the testimony that you believe t'j
be true" The attorneys in the case
had their stenographers carefully pre-
serve this excellent definition, and 1t is
believed to be gem which even the
highest courts may we'll quote in the
future. Certain it Is that the difference
has never before so tersely been defined
by the most able juTists.
