Brief and Pithy.

An American law journal has quoted
the charge to a fury delivered by a GER
tain Judge Donovan as the shortest on
record. The judge said:
Gentlemen of the jury, if you be-
Iieve the plaintiff, find verdict for
plaintiff and fix the amount. If you be-
lieve the defendant, find verdict for
defendant Follow the officer"
But an English periodical caps this
brief charge by quoting a shorter one
delivered by Commissioner Kerr. He
said to a jury:
"That man says prisoner robbed him,
The prisoner says he didn't. You settle
it,"
