"My friend's witnesses," said counsel for plaintiff when addressing the court, have not stifled their fences. They have taken them clean." His |Ionour: They have not passed the winning post. Counsel for defendant: They are still full of hope. Counsel for p'laintiffs: I think there is still a water jump.
