Mr. Justice Hawkins Is 0110 of Lon
don's wittiest Judges. Ho was one
day sitting hearing a case, and whllo
tho counsel for the plaintiff was ad
dressing him was obviously more In
tent on giving Instructions to the at
tendants to close n window and try to
stop a draught than attending to the
arguments put forth. At length, when
his lordship was inore composed, the
learned y. C, annoyed at his argument
going to the winds In such a manner,
said:
"I am not quite sure whether your
lordship caught that point."
The Judge was all attention again.
"I am Hot ipilto sure I did," be said.
"There's only one thing I nui sure I
have caught, and that'lsa cold."
