Tuckersmith. The case was commenced in December, 1899, and was brought to recover $5,000 damages for breach of promise of mar- riage. The chief defence to the action was that the plaintiff had, by it letter written by her to the. defendant in August, 1899, released and exonerated him from the promise of marriage. When the case was first tried at St, Thomas the plaintiff denied that she ever wrote the letter, and through the sympathy of the jury:secured a verdict. The defendant appealed the case and the judges at Toronto decided unani- mously thiet she, did write the letter, and so it new trial was ordered. When the case came on again for trial at St. Thomas, the plaintiff had it postnoned on the ground that her mother was sick and could not attend court as a witness. The defendant's solicitor, J. M. Bei, of Seaforth, then succeeded in having the place of trial changed from St. Thomas to London, and plaintiff, gave notice of trial for the last assizes in London, but as she did not proceed to trial with the et/se, Mr. Best made an application in Taronto to dismiss the action and was success- ful, and the case is now at an end.
