So help you God." le happened to know some thit tut tbe case which neither side case wauted told in court. T iness, however, intended to tell kuew. The lawyers began to obj< lis making certain statements, si they did not wish to hear anythi ept what they asked him abo appealed to the judge, and t ge said he should nut tell anythi ivhich the lawyer objected. Yc lor, didn't you make me swear J the whole truth, and nothing t truth, so help me God? Y de me swear it. and I'll tell it." And with that he jumped to 1 t, and turning to the jury, co need to rattle it off to thetn n pite all the efforts of two lawy< itop him, he told it all; and th ning to the judge, he said : "N< ir honor, I've told it. Now put i jail if you like. But hereafter, i don't want me to tell the wb( th, don't you make me swear thai I." udgps and lawyers were a good d< sized ; but the holiest man wasr t to jail. And the judge after t rt adjonred, said to a friend : Tli u taught me a lesson to-day that 1 not learned in all ray forty yet ierleuce on the bench ; and now y seriously question if it is right sar men that they will tell the whe :h, and then allow lawyers to pi t them from telling it." /ho that has sat in a Court roo watched the lawyers in their i pts to prevent witnesses teuiug i ple truth, and endeavoring toco ) and break down honest men, ai often succeeding, has not felt th re ouRht to be some way of prote< witnesses, and giving them nee to tell exactly what they kno the whole of it.
