UOjSciienck, when the judge made the
fo'lowing remarks :
4I !o not think it necessity for
nio jjo any turther into the mat-
:J.4'joi than what h;s ttausiMied iu the
hia'. I think that Ir. Schenck
!;i.-iih ;.i.d (-arueMtlv believed.
h- :;.t.r tiny or uatruly, that his
t r had been insulted, as d -v,j'oped
in the defence, which ap-
j:-als very ntrougly to the e.ourt. I
have not had the advantage of
heating Bev. Mr. Fife's personal
version of the matter, as he tele
graphed asking to be excused from
appearing. I take it, from the
statements made upon the stand
by the witnesses, that there was
some charge made of abusive lao
guage having been used concerning
Mn. Scheuck, and that this difficul
ty grew out of that. If there was
any evidence that Dr. Scheuck at"
tempted to use a pistol upou any
one it would present the matter in
a very differeut light to the court.
