The complainant said that he had nothing to cotnolain of in defendant's work if lie would only work when wanted, but that he was, when lie had the means, in the habit of getting on the spree, and leaving him, as on the last occasion, in the lurch, and that therefore he had no confidence in him/ The Warden said that he saw the hardship of Sullivan's case, but suggested that be should give defendant, who is an elderly man, another ■tri;l. He would, adjourn the further hearing of the complaint until to-mor-row, and if by that time the defendant went to work, and paid complainant £2los. for lost time he should consider the matter settled, if otherwise complainant could appear at the Court tomorrow and prosecute the complaint, when the Court would be prepared to make an order.
