Intermediate Id oration in Car- marlliensliire. MEETING OF COUNTY GOVERNING BODY. A special Meeting of the Carmarthenshire County Governing Body was held at. the Car- marthen Shire. Hall, on Thursday, Mr Chas. Lloyd, Waunifor, pre iding. TJ._ EXPENSES OF THE CENTRAL WELSH BOARD. Miss Bessie. Thomas, Llanelly, proposed that, the attention of the Central Welsh Board be called to the unfairness of claiming' the full 5 per cent, on the yea,r's, total revenue, in view of the fact that in future the lower forms of the school will not be examined. Mr W. N. Jones, Tirydail, seconded. Principal Evans, Presbyterian College, in supporting said that, nothing practical would come of the motion, although it was well to call attention to the. facts connected with it. The County Governing Body had e1 ered into a, contract by which the Central Welsh Board undertook to inspect and examine the whole of their and without notice to the county Governing Bodies the Central Board had withdrawn from a, very consider- able portion of their work, and proposed in future to confine their examinations to the upper forms. They had, it wa.s true, ob- tained the sanction of the Treasury, to a provisional- experimental measure. But the fact, still remained that the board had done that to which he had referred without con- sulting the county bodies. Surely, in common fairness, the latter had some1 little say on hat matter. Not content with omit- ting that portion of their work, the board proposed to abstain from examining in future even the candidates for the junior and the senior certificates unless such had been at. the school for a, period of two, three, or four ye,.irts,. That decision has also been arrived ait., without consulting the County Governing Bodies. However, as a result of a. protest, the, board had agreed to suspend the operation for the present year. Suspend it altogether, he would say, until at least the county bodies had assented to it. It was quite hopeless to expect such a concession as that, mentioned by Miss Thomas, on account of the fact that the expenses of the Central Welsh Board had been going up steadily. The estimate for the coming year was £ 1,000 more than that of the past year, and it seemed to him that that would con- tinue. It made education in Wales a very exjpi&nsive thing. There was. a danger that it would become still more expensive. What was the income of the Central W Ish Board? The Chairman: I am not quite sure, but I think it. is over £ 8,000. Principal Evansi added that, tha,t meant that the cost of administration amounted to JE1 per head. It was a very serious matter, and imposed a, very heavy burden on county bodies, and would impose heavier burdens on bodies that were to succeed them. It was obvious that if C'duaetion became so expensive, the object for which the schools were started would, to a certain extent, be sacrificed, and they would find that. the ad- vantages to the: people for Avhom the schools were founded would be filched away from them and offered to another class. The motion was adopted with unanimity.
A SCHOOL FOR THE AMMAN VALLEY.
A SCHOOL FOR THE AMMAN VALLEY. Mr W. N. Jones introduced a deputation from the Amman Valley, who desired to establish a county school in that neighbour- hood Meetings had been held at Bryn- amman, Garaant, Ammanford, and Peny- groes, and at. each place it had been resolved That this public meeting is of opinion that the time has arrived for the erection of an intermediate school in the Amman Valley, and that the thanks of this meeting be con- veyed to the County Governing Body for its grant of £ 900 towards the building fund of the school; but tha, the sum of £ 300 is wholly inadequate., and that an appeal be made to the said I,. dy to augment the sum by ti further sum of thje same, amount, or such other amount, as will place the Amman Valley school on the isame basis as other schools in the county, and that a, deputation of three appointed by this meeting be asked to wait upton the County Governing Body to impress upon them the importable0, of making this further grant." Lieut.-Colonel i orris, Mr J. R. Jones, Rev Job Herbert, and Rev Towyn Jones spoke for the. deputat'on, the last-named re- marking that they found scholarships and bursaries: accumulating in some of their cotii-ity schools for the want of children to use them, whilst in the Amman Valley dis- tricts parents were crying for secondary education for their children as infants cried for iligl-it. in the hours of the night, but so far they had not been able to secure it. They appealed for just enough money to make a secondary school in the valley a. success. He did not. want, to avail himself of any un- reasonable means by playing upon their feel- ings in reminding them how near they might be to the day of their death as a corporate body. If Sir Alfred Thmoas's amendment, which had been accepted by the Goveinment was to be retained in the present Education Bill, their body would soon be counted, along with many other splendid educational institutions, among the forces that made for light in the past, iand their places should know them no more (laughter). The spirit of change, and confusion was in the air, whether for bettor or worse time alone would tell; but should they act well their iparb at. the 1a.st for the. Amman Valley, and should those, who had been so long out in the. cold come "in at the death" for their common share in the spoils, whatever Parliament might think of them amd their work, they would have this consolation—.they had died in the act of blessing needy people (hear, hear, and applause). The Chairman was sorry the gentlemen had to go to a body in a moribund state but they might be able to put things in such a way that their successors might be of some help to them. What struck him, during a visit to the Amman Valley, was the number of higher grade classes in their elementary schools. He was astonished that. five years had been allowed to elapse without an i nt e r med i at o school. The deputation having retired, Mr W. N. jones sa,id that the, Charity Commissioners had fathered the Amman Valley scheme. "What the. Amman Valley people were, more concerned about than anything was the up- keep of the school. The County Governing Body decided to -rite to the Charity Commissioners stating that they were in sympathy with the. desire of ,'the inhabitants; their only difficulty wis the ways and means for maintenance. The discussion of an exhaustive report of the committee appointed to meIt, the. Whit- lalldschnol managers relative to the future of the school, which v,-as "being worked at a loss, was postponed. It was resolved That having bem in- formed by the. chief inspector of the Central Welsh Beard that, the girls' school at Car- nr-thcu and Llanolly had been organised a.s ence classes under Clauses 73 and 74 of the Directory of the Board of Education, and having given the local managers at Car- marthen and Llanelly full opportunity of ex- plaining the reasons which had led them to apply for recogr'tion under the said clauses, we find ourslelves unable to approve of the course the managers have taken, and decline sanctioning any departure from the curri- culum defined by S ction 86 of the county scheme." — o — Tho following l'ette rappeared in the "South Wales Daily News" on Saturday:- Sir,—I have been astonished to find in reading your report of the meeting of the Carmarthenshire County Governing Body. By some strange ove/sight, Mr Charles Lloyd the chairman of the County Governing Body (who is alsg, a member of the Central Welsh Board and of its Executive Committee), made, the extraordinary statement that the income of the Centra IWelsh Board was over £ 8,000. As a matter of fa.ot, thle income of the Board for the year ended March 31st, 1901, was £ 5,277 Is 7d, and for the year ended March 31st, 1902, zC5,895 12s lOd. From these figures it will be clear that the chairman of the County Governin gBody was in error to the extent of more than £ 2,000. Principal Evans, who is also a member of the Board, and in possession of all the facts relating to the finances of the board, followed this up by stating that the cost of administration was something like £1 per pupil. I have bnren a member of the Central Welsh Board from the. beginning, and I have attended the meetings of the Executive Committee and of the Finance Committee throughout, and I can assure the Carmar- thenshire friends that if the Central Welsh Board had an income equal to £ 1 per pUIPil all the financial questions of the board would be permanently settled. It is really to be regretted that gentlemen who are members of the Central Welsh Board do not take carle to place the actual facts before the members of their County Governing Body and more than this, it is to be feared that their statements might not only mislead the County Governing Body but also your readers, who have not the, same opportunity to get at the true facts of the case I therefore trust that his letter will be read by all who have read youir report. AARON DAVIES. -:0:- In Tuesday's "South Wales Daily News" Principal Evans replied as follows — Sir,—Dr Aaron Davies, referring to the recent proceedings of the Carmarthoushire County Governing Body, scoffs at my state- ment that the cost of administration by the Central Welsh Board is something like £1 per head on the number of pupils at the county schools, and evidently wishes your readers to understand that they have been grossly mislead. Now, what are the "actual facts ?" Dr. Davies appeals to the financial rfeports of the board. This is what I find there relating to the expenditure per annum Estimated. Actual. 1899-1900 £ 4,505 £4.6G7 1900-1 £ 5,004 £ 5,386 1901-2 £ 6.036 £6.511 1902-3 E7,159 The actual expenditure during the; last three years having thus been 3.5, 7.6, and 7.9 per cent. in excess of the estiamtjes-the per- centaje increasing with the amounts handled —Dr Davies must not be astonished over- much if I take the liberty of assuming that the figure for 1902-3, which was the year I referred to, when. increased by 8 ipier cent. will amount to £ 7,731. The chairman of the Carmarthenshire Governors had no doubt his own reasons for thinking that the sum might be JE270 more. But putting the expenditure at R7,731 only, and the number of county scholars at 8,000—the last official return I find, was 7,668--woore is the, error in sta- ting that the cost of a,dminitsratioll is something like £ 1 per head p r pupil ?" Dr Davie es, fastening on a remark in which income was ;iiadN-)eirteilt,ly used for ex- penditure," writes as though a wrong had been done to the board in suggesting that it rce -yes so much, and as though an in- crease in its receipts would, in settling all the financial questions of the board," reduce the expenditure per pupil. The actual com- plaint wa,s that the4 board spends so muûh- on the negLect of its duties. Whether Dr. Davies appreciates the distinction I do not quite know. But in any case my estimate of U somelthing like JEI per pujpil holds the field, and Dr Davies himself has not assailed it except by inutemdo.—I am, etc., WALTER J. EVANS. Green Hill, Carmarthen, Nov. 29th, 1902.

I consulted a doctor and he prescribed for me, but his medicines did me very little good. It eased me for a time, but the old troubles returned, ar.d I grew worse instead of better. I had become very low and despondent, and I began te fear I should uever get well again, when one day I happened to see the advertisement of Doan's Backache Kidney Pills in the paper. so T got a box and after taking a few, I felt great relief.

British and Foreign Bible…
British and Foreign Bible Society ANNUAL MEETING OF THE CARMAR- THEN AUXILIARY. The annual meeting of the Carmarthen auxiliary of the British and Foreign Bible Society was held at the Townhall on Thurs- day, the 27th inst., at 8 p.m. The Lord Bishop of St. David's presided. THE LATE REV HUGH PRICE HUGHES The Rev Jonathan Marsdien, vicar of Llan- llwch read a chapetr of Scritpure, and the Rev W. W. Lewis, pastor of the Presby- terian Church, prayed. The Chairman said The Committee agree with me that it would be very fitting that this meeting, representing as it dpes all Christian neople, should take this "-ortu- nity of passing a resolution of sympathy with the family of the late Rev Hugh Price Hughes, whose character and work deserve the esteem d gratitude of all Christian people, and especially the citizens of his native town. Though I had not the privi- lege ot knowing mm personallv 1 feel very strongly that the death of this devoted and gifted Christian minister is a great loss to the whole country as well as to the great Christian communtiy for which he did so much. We owe him a debt of gratitude fo'r all that he did in the cause of purity, tem- perance and social neform. and his example teaches us that, a thorough faith in Christ is the permanent source of the most nt.renuous eniergy in the service of man in all directioais I desire to move" That this meeting tenders to Mrs Price Hughes and her family its most rlespootful and sincere sympathy in their mourning, and records its deep sense of the great public loss sustained by the death of the Rev Hugh Price Hughes." The resolution was carried in silence, the audience rising en masse. Mr Brockite, the treasurer, presented his annual report from which it appeared that the year had commenced with a balance in hand of E2 6s lOd. After paying aJl expen- ses. L31 10s had been remitted to the Parent Society, and the year had concluded with a balance in hand of ztl 9s lid. The Chairman in calling upon the Mayor (Mr Walter Spurrel) to move the adoption of the report, said that he had once more to congratulate the Borough on its Mayor. The Mayor (Mr Walter Spurrell) said that, he regretted to see that names of Church of England places; of worship were conspicuous by their absenoe- in the list of those which had made collections. He hoped that that omission would be remedied in the future. Mr W. J. Williams, Cambray House, seconded the adoption of the report, which was carrijed unanimously. The Chairman said that in looking through the. report, he had been struck by the fact that, the centenary of the Bible Society was at hand. Th centenary would fall in the year 1904. and he hoped that some effort would be made by the friends of the Bible Society to get the Guildhall full on that occasion. It. was n matter of great thank- fulness as we approach the centenary to observe that the Society was making con- tinued progress. He noticed that the num- ber of Bibles issued in the year 1901 was greater tha.n those issued in any previous year with the exception of the year 1888. He thought it was also very right that His Majesty should have been presented by and should have accepted a copy of the Bible from the Bible Society, as a memorial of his Coronation, and that Queen Alexandra had accepted the position of Patron of the Auxiliary at Windsor, which was held so worthily for so many years by Queen Vic- toria. Another thing which struck him in reading the report was that the invaluable work of translating the Bible into different languages continued to go on steadily. Pro- gress had been made during the year in over 100 languages, and what was more encoura- ging than all, four new languages had been added to the list. The Bible or some portion of it was now to be had in 367 languages, and the complete Bible in 188 languages. A very interesting feature of the report was the accounts sent in by the colporteurs of their work. Many of the colporteurs were men of great natural ability, with a high sense of humour. Men could serve God quite as well, if he makes use of the gift of humour—one of the gifts of God to men. The colporteurs were natives of the coun- tries in which they worked; they were racy of the soil. Another fact with which lie was struck in reading te report, was the manner in which the Bible went home to the hearts of the poor simple neople in all parts of the world. The report furnished many examples of t'a.t power of the Bible over the hearts wherever man is found. In India, the Bible women did an immense work, which Euro- pean women could not do. Dr Hcorer. sneak Ing at a meeting of the C.M.S. in North India, referred to the great work dore by the Bihjle Society in producing versions of the Bible in fhe differnt languages of India. As" contrasted with the £31 forwarded by Carmarthen, he would pcinit out that Aber- ystwith sent JE187. Tregaron C93, and Aber- ayron £48. In justice, however, it should be said that there were four other counties, in diocese behind Carmarthenshire. An interesting feature in the contriblltions was the sum sent from the Welsh Colony in Patagonia. Hie sympathised with the dis- tress from which our countrymen in that remote corner of the world suffered recently it spoke volumes for tVir love of the Bible that they had managed last year out of their poverty to subscribe El.) los to the Society. In standing together on this common platform, thJ,, on a- platform sunported bv two solid pillars of fact. The first was this that every great Christian Mi««ionary Soeiety-he oue1- to have Faid perhaps every Protestant Chri~ti>n Mi^ien- arv Society—was; deeply indebted to the Bible Sceietv. So far he was no1 I Church Society, no No"conform:t Society could do ifz work as it is dono now with out the Bible Society. He was very pleased to observe tha,t a. much greater authority than he was—the Venerable Bishop of Gloucester —called the Bible Society the lever of all missionary societies.—" The second pillar of fact on which this common platform stands is this, that Christian people—Churchmen and Nonconformists—amidst all our differ- ences are sincerely and earnestly agreed in this in recognising the Bible as the standard' j' of faith, the treasury of devotion and the guide of life. The supreme authority of Holy Scripture was one of the main princi- ei- pies of the Protestant Reformation to which i we are all alike deeply and permanently in- debted, and in the cause of which, as miemory serves me right, I referred at one of these meetings before—in the cauise of which Bishop Ferra.r, Bishop of St. David's, gave his life 1 at the stake in this town. I onoe said it f before, if I nemember rightly. I say it again —that no man can venerate the memory of Bishop Ferrar more than myself.—The CShair man went on to say that one of the greatest dangers to Wales was the loss of the habit of devotional reading of the Bible. Until he was satisfied that Bible reading and family prayer occupied the place which they used to occupy in Wales, he should not feel oom- fortable about the spiritual condition of the t country. Rev A. Fuller Mills moved a resolution pledging those present to do all in their power to support the ible Society. He said that the same complaint was made in every town in South Wales that he knew-that there was a small attendance at the meetings of the Bible Society. That was really due to the faith of the people in the vitality of the Bible Society. They had such faith in it. that they were somehow disposed to leave it to work out its own way in the manner in which it did. Mr Morgan Griffiths in seconding said that looking at the smallness of the attendance— whatever might be the faith of the people in the Society—he was inclined to think that faith without works is dead. In these days of strife it was really a pleasure to have a common platform on which all sectarian differences are laid aside—thie one common Book which it was their privilege to assist in sending to all parts of the world. Rev J. Hughes Parrv vicar of Rudbaxton in the course of his address, said that he wished to say something not as a represen- tative of the Bible Society, but personally. He could not understand tlte attitude of many of his countrymen who were anxious to have the Bible circulated all over Lie world, but were not willing htat the boys and girls of Wales should have a chance of reading and learning it. Thirty years ago, Dr LeWIS Edwards, of Bala., solemnly warned, his countrymen of the giieat mistake they were making in shutting out the Word of God from elementary schools. His words were now bearing fruit, and many of those who opposed it, now realised the necessity of gli-in gour own boys and girls a chance' of Decerning acquainted with the Word of God. He hoped the d- was not far distant when we should send the Word of God not only t.o the children of Hindoos, and Kaffirs, but that we should bo willing to give the same chance to every bey and girl in our elemen- ta,rv schools. The Rev Jonathan Marsden proposed a vote of trumks to the officials of the local bv Mr R-j- j°"~
Like a Providence.!
Like a Providence. j A FLOATING BOX CHANGED A MAN'S LIFE. Things drift into our lives in a curious way. A man was visiting the seashore while an invalid and one day a little empty Grape- Nuts box floated to him. The food facts he learned changed his whole life-but let him tell his story. ,.The, doctors said it was acute indigestion or gastritis. There was really nothing that I could eat and enjoy, and when onle cannot enjoy his meals, he may as well be dead. There was a time when I could eat and digest anything, but for two years previous to last spring I was in a wretched state. I tried everything I heard of. took all kinds of medi- cine. almost enough to float a ship, but with no lasting purpose. Last spring I had to give up work, and went to the seaside. One dav while strolling along the beach I noticed a box being tossed about on the breakers and finalh7 thrown up on the sand. I sat down on the sand and looked at it idly at first, but after reading a few words on the box I got interested. It told how Grape-Nuts fullv-cooked cereal food was prepared and all its good qualities, and I made up my mind ,en and there that I would try it. I have not taken a drop of medicine from that day to this. but used about a half packet of Grape-Nuts each day for two months. Then I gradually began eating meet and vegetables and fruit, and now I can eat anything I care to without it dis- tressing me. but I still' cling to Grapi?-Nuts food, as I am fond of it prepared in various ways, and never a day passes tha.t I don't. have it in some form. I "After the first two months of using Grape I Nuts. I weighed myself every 15 days. and found I had gained from three to five pounds each time. I have been working every day since, and can say I never felt better. Thanks to Grape Nuts. I have now an appe- tite like a billy goat, and am no more troubled \.ith indigestion. "I wish I could talk with everyone troubled a.s I was. I know a good many people say 'Oh. I've tried everything. I am tired of trying,' etc.. but I sav 'Don't give up until you try Grape-Nuts food and vou will not. regret it. Name given by Postum Cereal Co.. Limited, Temple Chambers", Tem le- avenue.

At the cotrmoneeaient of the proceedings of Miss Trissy Roderick, daughfer of the late Wiiiiams of the King's Head, applied fur a transfer of the license, Mr G. Williams, her step-father, was with her, and, after a consultation, on the advice of the Clerk, the bench decided that before the license could be granted to either of them, some agreement satis- factorily to the bench must drawn up between them, and that they could get it done and apply again before the court rose. Mr T. G. Williams now saicr ',Ir (;. Williams and Miss Roderick had seen him since they had been in the court, and desii ed him to say they had come to an agreement by Mr U. Williams, which as adminis- trator, would with Miss Roderick's approval and desire, carry on the business in his name, she remain- ing there in the same posidon as previously, as manageress. Mr William* was the administrator and was prhnn-fitcic and in every way entitled to the transfer unle-s there was any objection. It was the more natural thing to grant the license to Mr Williams, thr widower, than to the daughter of tbe late tenant, ho being the older and the responsible person Mr J. L. Thomas What do tho police say ? Supt. Evans We have no objection. Mr T. G, Williams said tint, before SnpL Evans had been appointed, the Chief Constable had stated that his desire was that Mr Williams should be the responsible person, and h" was legally entitled to it. Mr J. L. Thomas It does seem the more natural We grant it them it will only lie temporary. The Clorl, it Would be permanent but would have to come on in the usual course in February. THE DRINK. J.

Both defendants were there drunk and cursing and swearing and wanting to fight one Pryce Davies, They used very foul language. They continued making a disturbance for some time.

He had not been convicted for an assault, but he had been for being drunk. Mr T. G. Williams Oh, that is nothing in this court (laughter). Gross-examination continued He never knocked down Thomas Jones oq the Tirydail-road, and kicked him until some men came along, and said, 0 Go i, don't kill the man." He was not on that road at all. Lewis Jones had approached him with a view of sdtlin the case. Mr Claude Davies That was at my suggestion. Inspector Davies said abont 10,5 p.m., Price Davies in the presence of the two Joneses, came up to him and complained that he had been assaulted. The Joueses said, We'll fight you or your brother.' Priee Davies was a rough customer with n wiid temper. Price wa3 sober, but the others were drunk, -ex,%tnitif,,i He heard that some men had gone do.vo after the Joneses, and he sent P.C Popkins to see about it. P.C Popkins s il l that the Joi -a^ wanted to fight Price Davies—Cross-examined About a quarter of a mile from Ammanford he found a crowd of about 50 people, with Lewis Joues in the centra. He was bleeding. Dan t-I Jenkins was not there. William Hopkins, collier, Tycroes, corroborated Price Davies' evieeuce. Lewis.t oues had something in his hand when he struck Davies. He stayed behind after the Joneses had gone home. When he was on the Tycroes road Thomas Jones came out from the hedge, and threw a stone at me. It did not strike him. Then he knocked Thomas Jodes into the gutter. Lewis done1 then came on, and he knocked him down They both attacked him, and he let them have it as hard as he could. Daniel Jenkins and a crowd of men came up. He then ran home. He never saw i Janie1 Jenkins doing anything that night. He had been summoned for fishing. -Cross-exam;ned The Joneses were drunk. He never saw a Mr Thomas on the road. He never heard anyone shout out, Murdor. He and Price Davies never kicked the Joneses when they were on the ground. He gave tfietii a ceuple.' Daniel Jenkins saih that when going home to Tycroes he saw a crowd of about 60 people. The fight was over, and he said to the Joneses, Don't go two against one," He went home straight, and dfd not know the two men.—Cross-examined He said, O God, hold on," when he saw a man being kicked on cue ground. This concluped the case for the plaintiffs. Mr Claude Davies then addressed the bench on behalf of the Joneses. Lewis Jones detailed the circumstances of the ass ..ode by Pryoe Davie- statins; that Davies struck him first. On the way home Pryce Davies and Wm. Hopkins knocked him down and kicked him. His biother was also knocked about, He had had a fight with Pryce Davies about three year ago, and since that Piyce had been on to him. He had since the assault been to Dr Anderson who gave him oil to rub in bruises.—Cross-examined He knew what a knuckle duster was, but he had never used one. He struck Price Davies on the floor, but William Hopins never pulled him off Davies. Mr Williams was proceeding to put a question to witness as to whether he had aot approached Pryce Davies that morning with a view to settlement, when Mr Claude Davies objected, as he had explained under what circumstances. It was an intimation from the Bench first of all. Mr William., I was never consulted. (T,) the witness). You asked these men to settle for money ? Mr Davit. Nothing or the kind. I was standing near the whole time, and heard all that was said. Mr Williams Oh no, that is another time. Mr Davies I am sure the Bench will believe me before a man of his reputation. The Chairman Oh dear, you surely don't mean to say that of Mr Williams. Mr Davies No. sir I mean his client. Mr Williams He has a great reputation now. Mr Davies I know all about that. I am quite capable of looking after my own reputation, Mr Williams I am sorry if I have said anything reflecting on Mr Davies's reputation, I never meant it, I'm sure. (To the witness.) Was your solicitor present ? Mr Davies Then you insinuate that I am telling an untruth. Mr Williams You might have been away at this time. The Chairman Let us have no more of this, please time. The Chairman Let us have no more of this, please gentleman. It is bad enough to hear such cases with- out the professional gentlemen squabbling. Cross-examination continued He was fined for tampering with the electric wires at a colliery. Mr Willliams That is a criminal offence. Thomas Jones, the other defendant, said Price Da, its struck him, and on the road he and his wife were actacked by Davies, Hopkins and others. The charges against Daniels had been withdrawn because they made a mistake. He was k eked until be could hardly speak.—Cross-examined He saw Price Davis on the ground by Cocoanut-place, and his brother hit his face on the ground. Price Davies did not say anything to the police, who had interfered because there was a row. He did not return after being once sent away. P.C Popkins told his brother to go home. Hopkins did not kick witness on Tycroes road. Ractiel Thomas, Parkyrhunfach, said I remem- ber the night or tho 15th November. I was in the house and heard a scream I went out about eight yards from my house, and went up to the crowd thinking it was my husband's voice I heard. I saw a number of boys. I did not know them and so I cannot name them. I saw Lewis Jones and Thomas Joms leaning on the hedge. I saw marks on one of tho Jones's forehead. I did not hear anyone eay, Leave the boys alone."—Cross-examined by Mr Williams I did not see Price Davies and William Hopkins. The defendants Lewis Tones and Thomas Jones were each fined 10s and costs, and the other cases were dismissed. This concluded the business.
