Rodney rode on horseback from 81

for the purpose OF voting for the Decla-
ration of Independence.
In that soft midland where the breezes
bear
The North and South on the genial air.
Through the county OF Kent, on affairs
OF State,
Rode Caesar Rodney, the delegate.
Burly and big, and bold and bluff.
In his three-cornered hat and coat Of

Into Dover village he rode apace,
And his kinfolk knew from his anxious

1t was matter grave that brought him
there,
To the counties three upon the Della

Money and men we must have" no
said,
"or the Congress fails and our cause
Is dead,
Give US both and the King shall not
work his will.
We are men. since the blood Of Bunker

Comes rider swift on a painting bay;
"Ho, Rodney, no! you must save the
day,
For the Congress halts at q deed SO
great,
And your vote alone may decide its
fate
Answered Rodney then: IT will ride

But ride like the wind from the Deia-

CASES OF INTEREST
 IN LEGAL SPHERES
z Decisions Given on Peculiar Ques-
 tionS in Many Jurisdictions

Claim in bankruptcy for dama ges TOT breach of marriage promise. A broken-hearted damsel poured out her sad story Of unrequited love before twelve just men and true and was awarded as salve to her wounded feelings the sum of 5000.
 Presumably, the prescribed salve was regarded by the defendant as somewhat too costly for his modest purse; for he sought the aid of a higher court, and was given another chance to plead his defense before a jury. Pending appeal defendant filed a petition in bankruptcy, and plaintiff filed her claim for s25,OOO. After re- versal of Judgment by the state ap- pellate court, defendant asked that the claim in bankruptcy be reviewed, discharged, and expunged."
 In his opinion for the circuit court Of appeals, second circuit in re Mar tin, 228 Federal Reporter 1S4, Judge Coxe says: "The question here is whether the claim for damage for the breach of contract Is one that can be sent to the state court for determina- ton. The bankrupt insists that, the Judgment of the state court having been reversed, there is now no legal Cld1IA ct4AASk IlA11l, CIS ldW ISldlllS only to claims which are admitted or conc1usdvely proved, and not to claims which are unliquidated, denied, and which may never be established at all. It seems to us that the referee was right in holding that section 63b cov- CTS the present controversy, and that under this section he was justified in regarding the claim unliqu1dated, and properly found that it should be liqutdated in such manner as the court may direct, and then proved against the estate for the amount allowed. An action such as this Is generally sup posed to be one within the province of a jury, and 1t Is thought that the referee did not exceed his powers in that the claim be determined in the supreme court of the state
New Britain herald., 1916-08-25

in an acquittal, he being once in jeo- pardy? This exception must be over ruled. There was no action on the part of the court that in any manner affected l.. H. Mcleod rights. They were not discharged by the court, states counsel, or any person in au- thority, without lawful cause. If they had been so discharged the defendant might have taken advantage of this,- and relied upon plea of former jeo- pardy, but in this case the jury dis charged themselves. They were guilty of misconduct and contempt of court in escaping as they did, and could have been punished for contempt of court, but the mayor could not have summoned and reassem bled them for the purpose of making them consider again the case and reach a verdict. The law has been well settled in this state, from the time of the case of State V. Mckee 1 Bailey, 651, 21 Am. Dec. 499, down to the present time"
 InvaIidity of second marriage as 8 defense to bigamy charge.-The in- genious defense interposed in the bigamy case of Allen V. State, ST Southeastern Reporter, 681, that where both parties to a bigamous marriage have former spouses living, no crime is committed, suggests the proposition that where neither party has suffered an injustice neither can be guilty. This theory overlooks the fact that wrong has been done the lawful spouses and that the public the State-is the aggrieved party in all criminal transactions.
 The opinion of Judge Wade, for the Georgia Court of Appeals does not however, include the proposition sug- gested, but concerns itself merely with defendants contention that neither party having ability to contract the marriage, there could be no con- tract or consummation according to law"
 The opinion reads in part: "The only authorities cited by counsel for plaintiff In error on this point are sec tions 2930 and 2931 of the Civil Code, the first of which gives the essentials of valid marriage in this state, and the other pointing out those who are legally able to contract marriage. Counsel, 1t seems to us, loses sight of the fact that these Code sections deal solely with valid maria ges' and that, if his contention was correct, then there could never be in Georgia a conviction for bigamy. One cannot be convicted for entering into valid marriage. A marriage between one already married and one unmarried ie not a valid marriage, because one of the parties labors under the disability of a previous marriage undissolVed and still such married person who en- ters into the contract with one unmar- ried man be convicted of bigamy. We are unable to see the distinction be- tween an invalid marriage whether entered into between one married and one unmarried or between two persons who are laboring under disabiI- ity because of previous marriages un- dissolved. Before there can be big amy, 1t is true. that there must have been a prior legal contract of mar riage. But the crime of bigamy is based entirely upon the proposition that the second or bigamous marriage is not: and cannot be legal. If it were legal marriage, there could be no bigamy."

Larceny Not Within Scope of Elm p,oyrnent.-The case of Bruton V. sakariason, 1855 Pacific Reporter, 725, involves the question of liability of the master for the servants larceny of sheep which he mingled with his employers flock.
 The principals each owned, on ad- joining ranges, some 5000 head of sheep. Defendants sheep were in charge of his two sons. Plaintiff missed a number of his flock, and tra aced them to his neighbor's range, where they were found mingled with defendants flock. The larceny by the sons seems to have been conclusively csta blshed.
 "The only question tbat presents any difficulty" says Chief Justice Roberts, speaking for the Supreme court. New McxicO lis as to the con- ncction of the father with the trans action No direct evidence was offered as to the extent of their the SC nsD duties and powers; but, assun- ing they were to safely keep, tend, and caro for said sheep, in the usual wav and manner, known to the people generally. in the open range country, did the larceny of sheep of others occur in the course of employment * Certainly. it would be a dan scrous doctrine to hcld that larceny, bH- a herder on the open range, of cattle, sheep, or horses, came within
