Connell said he believed the best way would be to bind them both over to keep ths peace. The complainant then entered tbe box, and deposed that the woman had come to her house (they had been living apart) and threatened to stab him. He was not in bodily fear of her, but he was afraid he might lose his temper and commit himself. John Murphy stated that he was with his mother when this supposed assault occurred, and she made use of no such threatening language. Florence Murphy also gave evidence. Hid Worship dismissed the information, stating that if he had power he would have bound the complainant over in a heavy penalty, but he could not. Complainant: " Can you not bind us both over." His Worship : "No." Complainant : " Then you'll have to bind me over some time. All I can say is that none of them had ever better come near me again." His Worship ordered that the children shouldlremain in Mrs Murphy's keeping, but said that he could make no order for maintenance, and she would have to take other steps to procure this.
