"I‘m his partner and I was drunk," replied Burns. "I‘ve been on the "waâ€" ter wagon" six months, but I fell off yesterday." ' "With a big splash and clean up to the ears." pursued the cadi.

That, of course, calls forj a slander suit on behalf of music‘": When asked by Chairman Samuel Cassel to say a few words, the crown attorney said he "had been too busy to prepare a speech" and therefore, wouldn‘t say much. "I spent most of the afternoon looking up the statutes to ascertain the penalty for sleeping on duty and find that in most countries of the world, capital punishment has been abolished.
