When Vest nished speaking, the jury, after two imutes deliberation, awarded the laintiff $f>00. The full text of the perch follows: Gentlemen of the Jury: The best i iend a man lias in this world may I'm against him and become his neniy. His son or daughter that he as reared with loving care may I oove ungrateful. Those who are rarest and dearest to us, those whom trust with our happiness and our ood name, may become traitors to he?r faith. The money that a man as he may lose.

He guards the sleep of his pauper master as if 10 were a prince. When all other friends desert he remains. When r:t hes takes wings and reputation rails to pieces be is as constant in his nve as the sun in its journey through i he heavens. If fortune drives the raster forth an outcast in the world, friendless and homeless, the faithful log asks no higher privilege than that )i accompanying him to guard igninst danger, to fight against his >n"mies, and when the last scene of ;:! comes, and death takes the master its embrace and his body is laid .j the cold ground, no matter-if all tiicr friends pursue their way, there \ his graveside will the noble dog e found, his head between his paws, lis eyes sad but open in alert watchdlness, faithful and true, even in eath.
