How He Did II.

A lawyer once asked man who
had at various times sat on several
turies:
"Who Influenced You most-the law
yer, the witnesses or the judge?" He
expected to get some useful and in
teresting information from so expert
enced juryman. This was the mans
reply:
'I'll tell yer, sir. 'ow I makes up my
mind. I am plain man, and a rea-
sonin' man. and I amt influenced by
anything the lawyers say: no, nor by
what the judge says. l just looks at
the man in the docks and / says: II

Stoker in Personal "reminiscences
