Glover.— la this case tho complainant charged the defendant, a married woman, with using abusive language towards him in a public place.

Rowling.— Claim for £9 19s, the value of seventeen sheep destroyed by defendant's dog. Mr Bunny appeared for the defendant. In .this case the evidence was of a very circumstantial nature, there being no direct evidence that the dog killed the sheep, though he was seen in the neighborhood.
