while he was in his cups No one else

De ce~ resented the fnsinuation
that he vas drunk after having only
two glasses Of beer. He remained at
the Roe house until l O'Clock in the
morning. He never went there again
except in q business capacity as an
electrician.
Attorney J. A Magoon was then
called to testify in regard to his
guardianship OF James Love.
Magoon told how Lore was always
anxious for money and how he was
never satisfied with what he got. II
seems that Love was allowed, under
the guardianship. Just eleven dollars

his business relations with Love and
with Mrs. Hart. Magoon was the
guardian Of James Love who had peti.

planned his relations. which were ap-
parently rather complicated but which
did not seem so complicated after his
explanation.
