he should not be punished for contempt
because of his failure to pay to his wife
certain alimony, as directed by the
court last month.
Johnston had a variety of reasons to
give for not having obeyed the courts
order, but none of them were such as
to convince Judge Hughes that he had
made any effort to pay over the money.
The court accordingly made an order
committing Johnston to the custody of
the Sheriff until such time as he may
