JURYMAN TOLD TO LEAVE.
After two witnesses had given evidence at an inquest at Croydon, London, a juror stated that he had not heard a word, as he was deaf.
The coroner remarked that it was a farce to go on in these circumstances. Almost by shouting the coroner made tho juror understand that he wished him to leave. Even then the juror protested, 41 I don't want to go. I wish to do my duty."
