HAVE MANY y
AFFADAVlTS.
Bird and Hayes Present
Testimony of Many
~ Persons.

"There Is a prejudice against John
Lynn and the Levy Court in general
in this County, and this is supported
BY atfidavits OF many persons, SAID
Mr.. Bird in the Superior Court this
morning. when he presented his atfa.
davit in asking for rule to show why
the trial Of John Lynn should not be
held IN Kent County.
Both the grand and petit jurys and
even the court are tax payers, free.
holders and interested parties.
They would like to take the case in
to Kent County, and have Judges
Pennewell and Boyce on the bench.
There were many atiid avits Of.
which the following are a fair sam
pie.
William Gamble says he heard a
man say in speaking Of John Ly mn
that the man who built the Work.
house tunnel! should be the first to
walk through it TO the whipping
post.
John W. Mccoy said he heard a
man say that the whole Levy Courr I
should be in Jail.
James keenan,, painter, says
that Philemna Chandler in his pres.
ence, said that John Lynn should
resign his seat in Levy Conrt. then
perhaps the indictment against
him would be dropped.
. Lindsey Ellison heard a man say
that he would like TO see every
member Of the Levy Court in Jail.
Millard f. Gray, heard James
Aunter say that John Lynn ought
to have his back lached aud all OF
the members OF the Levy Court
should be in jail.
There were many more atlldavits of
a similar character which Mr. Bird
said all went to show tina. there was
prejudice against his client and he
thought that this was sufficient alone
to warrant change of venue.
Alexander Cooper appeared in be-
half of Harry NJ. White, and asked
that the indictmentagainst his client
be quashed.
The rule was issued and argument
will be made Oh saturday.

WILL I CHARGE 81
u, y; NEGLIGENCE.

In Superior Court this morn
ing Mr.. Whiteman appearing
for Giuseppe Giordano, with
drew his objection, to the de-
fence putting a person on the
stand to testify as to a conver-
sation that took place between
his client and the late Peter
Cooper, Jr., as it has not yet
shown who this person is. He
will however object to this per-
sons testimony, as the laws Of
thss state will not allow any
person to testify as to what
may be said by a client to his
attorney in the preparation of
his case. Much authority was
given upon this point, and the
objection was only withdrawn
for the time being.
Giordano was the first wit
ness on the stand and he took
up his testimony where he left
off yesterday afternoon.
He recited the facts of tho
accident that have already been
given.
DR.. John Palmer testified
that he had been called to the
quarry the day of the accident
and told that there were sever
al men hurt. He saw the
plaintiff in the ambulance and
attended him later at the Del
aware Hospital. The eyes
were entirely blown from the
mans head and were never
found and his face and nose
badly crushed. The sense of
smell is badly affected and will
be so, as long as the man lives.
The next witness was an
Italian, who said he knew the
plaintiff and Caperallo, who
was killed. Caperallo was en-
ployed as an expert blaster and
Mr., Whiteman said they pro-
posed to show that the defend
ant company was negligent in
employing such a man, as it
was known he was RECKLESS, in
competent and negligent and
had been injured many times.
Antonio Parcelb stated that
he was employed at the quarry
on the date of the accident but
had since left there. He was
near the crusher when the
blast was made and helped to
take care of the injured.
The case will be continued
this afternoon.
In the divorce case of Whit
craft against Whitcratt, j.
Frank Ball made return of tes-
timony and asked for publica-
