By Court: I took it, and gave it [to] my wife to keep. She wrapped it up in a piece of paper and put it on the table. The paper was afterwards found on the ground, but the horn was not in it. My kumbaros brought it to me in the night, and I did not like to hurt his feelings by refusing it.
I was married in April last. I was married on Sunday, and received the horn on Tuesday. I did not ask for it. My kumbaros told me it was a snake's horn, and told me its effects. I did not know whose it was. Haralampo asked me to take care of it. My wife saw it, and I told her what it was. I left it on the bedroom-table. I swear I made no use of it. Plaintiff and Defendant are not on bad terms. Plaintiff only complained of Defendant that he had spoken ill of him to the police. I never heard of the horn when I was married.
Mr. Efthymiades says the thing is valueless.
Judgment for Plaintiff.
Return of the horn within 21 days, or ;^6 damages. Costs
