M'LE0D CASE ON TRIAL
Big Damage Suit Attracts Much At
tention==Defense Sets Up Theory
of Self Defense==COurt News

The Harsell VS.. Mcleod damage
suit will consume most Of the week.
The case will probably go to the jury
some time Friday. The testimony for
the plaintiff will all be in this after.
noon, some twenty to thirty witnesses
having been examined.
Between so and 90 witnesses have
been subpoenaed for the defense which
is putting up great fight. The de-
fense is proceeding on the theory that
Mcleod acted, in the heat of passion
and under great provocation, in self
defense when he beat young Harsell
and that he was laboring under the
impression that the boy had a gun
and might shoot him some time. The
defense will also try to prove that
Harsell was subject to epeleptic fits
prior to the assault.
Eleven eye-witnesses to the assault
have testified on behalf of the plain
tiff.
Standing room was at premium
in the district court room nearly all
day yesterday, the attraction being
the damage suit of Horace w. Harsell
against Rory Mcleod. In this case
the plaintiff seeks to recover 1000
actual damages, $1,000 punitive and
exemplary damages and SIS alleged to
have been expended for medical ser
vices in consequence of an assault upon
Harsell committed by Rory Mcleod in
this city on Oct. a, 1904.
The case was called promptly at
O'Clock. Attorneys c. S. Wagner and
w. P. Baker represent the plaintiff,
Harsel1 and Henry L. Myers and r.
Lee McCulloch are conducting the de-
fense. A jury was secured without
much difficulty. The following are
the jurors: Jasper Evans, Luther Mil
Ter, ]. w. McCarty, r. w. Miller, C.
E. Hulett, Sidney Parks, Dayton DON
ica, Chas. Flanagan, w. A. Nichol-
son, A. r. Granger, Hugh Murray and

Austin Cave.
The facts as adduced in the testirno-
ny may be briefly summed up as fol-
lows: Mcleod, on the morning of Oct.
4, 1904, met Harsell, who was between
10 and 20 years at that time, in front
of the City Meat Market, and knocked
him down and kicked him several times.
Mcleod then appeared before Justice
FL. Morris, pleaded guilty to an assault
and was fined SIS.
The plaintiff, through Silas Harsell
his father and guardian, some months
later instituted damage suit, claim
ing that as result of the beating he
had received, his hearing was affected,
by Mcleod; that his side was perman-
emily injured from the same cause and
that he had become afflicted with epi-
lepsy as result of the rough treat
ment and prayed for damages as afore-
mentioned. Shortly after this suit was
filed deeds and other conveyances were
filed showing that Mcleod had dis
posed Of all his property to Chas. w.
Blaisdell.
On motion of attorney for plaintiff
the case Of Amos Buck Mercantile Co.
VS.. Jerome A. Bishop, was dismissed
as settled.
In the case of Geo. w. Ward VS. J..
A. Nelson, suit to recover $3.50 for
lumber, the jury returned a verdict
for $500.
On motion of H. c. Stiff, attorney
for plaintiff, the case of T. S. Letter
man VS.. Wood Placer Mining Co., was
dismissed without prejudice. In this
case Letterman sued the Wood COM
pany for balance Of $4,000 commis-
sion alleged to he due him for effect
ing sale OF the property to ]. A..
Nelson.
In the case of M. Dwyer against
