A statutory offense was made of tbe chargo, and Judge Snow conducted the prosecution, prosecu-tion, General Maxwell appearing for tbe defendant. The evidence in tbe case wan eub.Ltmially aB stated in Wednesday morning's Herald. Tbe only additional facta elicited were that after being released he found his wifo, aa stated, and took some money from her. Sbe repeated him to return it, whereupon he assaulted her. Her cries of "murder" attracted some persons, who, w'.ien they saw her n terribly bruised and bkf!ing, thought eho hid beeu d libed, iu:d so told llir policemen. Frondi informed the policemen with cottdettviiding fraiA-, neeri, wheu iht-y arrested bim, that j the caae would aniouiit lu uuihing, as he knew his wife wculd not appear against him. But in th:s instance we again have another illustration ol the fickleness aud perfidy of the fair Bex, for she dititippoio'ud bim, aud on her testimony he was bound over in $500 bonda on a charge of mayhem to await the action of tho grand jury. French, in reality, has reason to feet thankful at this issue if a woman's love for her lord is so weak that ahe cannot Qtaud to be knocked down, stamped on and have her teeth knocked out by him aud faugh it off as a good joke, her husband should congratulate himself on finding out her faithlessness, whatever the cost. Hyrum Glassoer, during the trial, was arrested on the statement of Mrs. French, that he had attempted to dissuade her from appearing as a witness wit-ness against her husband, and bad also threatened her in order to keep her away. He gave bail in $200 to appear at 10 o'clock this morning. |
