each is covered with a transparent

snake slips.

PRODUCTION Of the Croft fastener into

Just before the afternoon session
Justice Prtchard summoned into his
private room the jury and counsel on
both sides. He announced TO them that
two jurors had informed him of the
receipt of several letters bearing on the
case, which represented that they ought
to stand by the government. It is an-
derstO0d that government counsel dis
aVOwed any responsibility for the cOn1-
municstiOns, while counsel for the de-
Tense availed themselves of the OPP
pOrtunity TO say that neither by word
nor act had any attempt been made by
them or their clients to influence the
jury in any way.
