McCoy conducted hla own defense, fortified with a aeries of written queatlona. Mrs. Coykendall waa called to tha stand and refused to be sworn, pre ferring to affirm. Her story was to tha effect that McCoy approached her on Thurman street and sneertngly said: "Well, yon can aee from the papers What people think of you now," and at the same time applied a vile epithet to her.
