There has been some difference between the two. Briinfield is alleged to have punched Lewis on the nose. Lewis went through the large window. Then Briinfield picked, him up and threw him through tho window again. Lewis was cut by the glass, and I would therefore ask that "bnjl jshould be substantial, if granted.
