Before the Times counsel for Uip Piirnullitea appealed to_ Sir James Hanneu to confine the evidence more to reasonable limitu, pointing , out that such widespread testimony as hud been given could serve no good purpose, and only tended to ruin everybody whoso name- was dragged in. Counsel urged that the evidence in reference to the shooting of Lord Mouut-raorri.-f was a case in point, unci moreover, the cross-examination of Lady Mountmorris showed thiit bur husband's murder was due to quite ii different c;iuse than the vengeance of tenants. Sir James Hanncn, in reply, expressed a hope that Counsel for the Times would see their way to curtail the evidence in the direction indicated.
