The case of State vs. Davis,
previously reported, in which an
indictment was sent for eaves-
dropping, was argued b the
attorney general and Harry Skin
Esq. The attorney general
stated that since the indictment
did not allege that the converse
overheard had been repeated
in the community, he did not
think that it would lie for the
charge of eaves dropping as
recognized by the Common Law,
that it might be good to bold
the defendant on a charge of dis-
orderly conduct.
Mr. Skinner, for the defendant,
took the ground that the indict-
did not charge any offense
and that the acts complained of
did not constitute disorderly cod

practically break connection with
