This is the spirit that guides the

These are remarks made by Mary
Duffy before the court.
II is alleged that Duffy has peri
odical predictions for abusing his

complained. but neighbors did and
the result was that Duffy faced Judge
Grove.
His wife took the stand. She eluci-
dated the philosophy of her life. The
accused nodded his head approvingly.

dwelt OH Mrs. Christy's misconduct.
almost up to the time that the habeas

Christy's reform.
Natalie will remain al the Duncan

Mrs. Christy was not in court when
the decision was handed down, as she

exceedingly nervous while the decis-

scarcely took his eyes off Judge
