Yesterday afternoon Judge Neal
again called on the doctor to state the
condition of the jury in the mill dam
case, and upon his certificate that one
Of them was very sick. and that ten
were unfit for longer confinement, or
dered juror withdrawn and nistrial
entered on the docket.
Yesterday after the jury was dis
charged, the civil docket of the regu-
| lar term was continued for this week,
as all witnesses and jurors had been
notified not to come, as the whole week
was expected to be consumed in trying
| the mill case Last night al meeting
| of the local bar it was determined to
adjourn the whole docket, and this
morning when Judge Neal opened court
| to hear motions, etc, he was informed
| OF the action of the bar, and left for
| home on the noon train. He had ex-
pected to come back next Monday and
| continue the court, but this action will
give him a rest. The lawyers all say
| that June term of court in this county
| is always a hardship on farmers who
| are busy in the harvest, etc, and never
amounts to anything.
