iTis better not to be too humble in

a deacon in down the river county
had the editor of the local paper arrest
ed because the paper referred to him
as a miserable worm of the dust and a
vile old sinner. The editor proved by
numerous witnesses that the deacon
had declared many times in prayer
meeting that he was a poor worm of
the dust' and that he chad sinned in
thought, word and deed" The jury
rendered verdict of not guilty as the
statement was justified by the plaintiffs
own admissions.
