How Senator Morgan Won a ns With th Bible fi Hand. r G. N. I. iII A tlantit Journal. SIt, was some twenty yoars ago that Sonator John T. Morgan won a very romarkablo case In the probate court of Mobile County, Ala., by using the Biblo as his ohlof book of rofereneo beforo the jury. . A lady possessed of considerable piroperty, died and on her deathbed OXCOuted a will, leaving Overything she owned to her throo daughters. Soon after her doath, tht dwelling in which the young ladies resided was burned, andt the will was dostroyed before it was probated. Tihe three young diughiitrs sought, to probate a copy of the will drawn up fr-on what they remiemn bered of its con tents. Other heirs undertook to light the case. Sonator Alorgan reptrn-oted the young ladies, and a veiy distini guished e.-judge of Alabania rpre sented the contestant:. The case came up for a hearing before .1 udge I'rico Williams, .1r., who is still the probate judge of Mobile County. I Was at that, time a clerk inl tUe record ollice and was present during the hear oig of the ease. A jury was asked for ainl one was eIpI)IIneilCd. Tihe young !adies were put under the rule, and while one was testif ing the other two were excluded from the coulrtrooi. The i est of the ladies upon the stand te.tilied to the contents of the alleged will, and stated thiat to the best, of her rLco)llet,tiOn hier- mlothler, wh1ile ;itting~ up inl bed, wriote upon fool seap pap;r a with a pIcil. Tle nex t gave Itout the samtle testimiioniy its to the eontents of the doen tile.lt, but sald it was written on note paper and in ink. The third corrolora ted her sisters as 0o the ConteUnt.s Of the will, but said tl ct is she ri iieiembered in tle writ ing was on letter paper and in putlrpi ink. .\ tithe conclusion of the evidence for the applicants the court tool a :'ort recess, and Judge lIoyles walked into the record iooi to smoke a cigar, he thiere found Senator Mlorgan h ngaged in reading the Bible. \\ at are you looking for in the oklt, General ?" asked Judge a), a few texts between Genesis :id Ivelations," was the reply. Wien the arguments began Judge ;o(yleS. with the COnlidenCe of a win iier, atrose and l)roceeded to tear the evidence of the yourg ladies into stithereens, by holding up before the jury the discrepancy of the testimony. We fortunately pit themil under the rue," he exclaimeld, " and not one of themi air.-ed as to how that will wits written. Just think, they had it on all sorts of Iaer atl written with adl1 I l nds of ink and peneils." lie then referred to) Senator Morgan studying the ilibie and said a lawyer was in ties i perate straits wheni lie had to leave his law books and take refugte in the Word of Gd)41 ;!Ilator M.organ leaned hacc in his chair, listened, silelied and Ztroked his short, gaty mitiustaclhe. l-'inally it came his turn to adtlrvss the jury. Ile walk d forwarid with Iible in his hand and I said: I hold in my hand a Book that I was .tu ghIt to btelive and to reverece at, ili; tulhille's knee. (entluenn of le jury. I know that every one of yout h-;u-ti to look upon this, acred ivolume with r: ,)1(t len a imiother's hilv love * ubl1eil your. youithful foses In th ",iok I . itdied tihe lill of Ut) \lter, :mid let, I tell you why I he it I tlhe fourt 'gospels hiave recorded ii the l tuhi.
