Juror Tried for Talking.

Declaring that in talking of
, case in which he sat as a juror, out
side the court, was grossly improper
the judges in Superior Court il
Wilmington last week, adjudgeC
Willard S. Meredith in contempt o
court, and he was fined $50 anc
costs. Mr.. Meredith, who is a for.
mer Representative, was a member
of the petit jury and was empaneled
in the case of Lewis Anderson
against the city of Wilmington. On
Monday he was suddenly excused
from further service on the jury,
and the case continued with eleven
Jurors.
The court was informed that
Meredith had been discussing the
case outside and issued a rule on
him to show cause why he should
not be adjudged in contempt OF
court.
The witnesses were motormen
and conductors on the Peoples
Railway Company who testified
that Meredith talked OF the case to
them and that he said the city So
ilcitor would prove that Anderson
the plaintiff was drunk. Other
witnesses testified that they heard
Meredith remark that he was sur
prised that Mr.. Satterthwaite did
not ask for non-suit.
Meredith on his own behalf testi-
fed that he meant no disrespect to
the court, that what he said was
thoughtless and that he had no in
tentiOn to interfere with justice.
After hearing the evidence, Chief
Justice Lore speaking for the court
said
Mr.. Meredith, stand up. The
court have heard the testimony in
his case. We have many painful
luties to perform, and this is one of
hem
"We want to say to you that
'ne of the primary duties of a juror
S to listen carefully to the testimony
IN both sides and to make up his !
mind after he has had the whole .

proper grossly improper, for a jur-
II to talk to others than his fellow :
urors about a case in which he has
worn to do justice, and it is grossly s
for him to permit anybody u
0 speak to him abont the case in II
ny way. 1t touches the admins o
ration of justice at one of its most c
points confidence u
f the public in the integrity Of the u
lrors, that the court will deal fair "
Y and justly. This confidence is Il
he bulwark of our judicial system. P
"Your conduct in this case in "
liking with the witnesses in the u
lse who had already testified, but r r
