Judge West came very near ending the
Gregg damage case his morning by draw
ing the jury and crossing the case from the
Charles NJ. McCabe was speaking
for the plaintiff, and was arguing from a
letter by June Gregg when she was in
Paris, KY, to her husband, George Gregg,
just after he had returned with his mother
from Mt. Clement, Mich. In this letter
were some statements that Mrs. Sarah NJ.
Gregg. the defendant in this suit. had mis-
treated her, the plaintiff. The attorneys
for the defense interrupted Mr.. McCabe
and made a motion 10 have the suit dis
missed, and the attorneys had a long
wrangle over the matter. 1t was claimed
that Mr.. McCabe was using parts OF tho
letter which had not in any way been
brought out in evidence. The judge ruled
that no part of the letter could be dis
cussed, unless 1t was TO show the truth or
falsity OF something brought out in evil
dence. The judge came out very plainly,
and said that If he could see that parts Of
the statement in these letters, not support
ed or disputed by evidence, were being ar
gued, that he would not hesitate to draw
the jury and strike the case from the
docket.
Mr.. McCabe told the court that h was
not trying to evade the rule, and, proceed
ing to speak, he was again Interrupted by
the defense. The judge then sent the jury
out Of the room and took the attorneys into
his room, where the matter was adjusted
to the satisfa ction of the judge and attor-
neys. The jury was then brought back and
Mr.. McCabe continued his argument.
The people were simply wedged into the
speech of Mr.. McCabe. He spent some
time In showing that George Gregg loved
his wife before he married her. when he
married her and after he married her, and
tina his letters to her saying that this
earth was a heaven with her, and that he
would die If she did not return TO him. were
written as expressions Of his true feelings,
and not as an act OF diplomacy" as was
testified by Gregg to have been mis- motive
when he wrote them.
This afternoon Mr.. McCabe dwelt on the
alienation of the affections OF George
Gregg. He claimed that IL was not disput-
ed In the evidence that his affections had
been alienated. and that there had been no
evidence TO show that June Gregg had done
a single act TO bring about his GOODNESS.
This he argued as being the case, and that
ii left only the defendant as the person who
had caused the separation. Mr.. McCabe
said that there were two points of SINH
man, the colored man. They were both
Elks and both would get drunk. The de-
PENDANTS attorneys objected again to the
argument of Mr.. McCabe, but the judge
said he could not see that he was wrong.
Court adjourned at four o'clock until
Monday morning. 1t is expected that the
case will go to the jury Monday afternoon.
