The Man with No Enemies
|
AN Inoffensive Person walking in a public place was assaulted by a
Stranger with a Club, and severely beaten.
When the Stranger with a Club was brought to trial, the complainant
said to the Judge:
'I do not know why I was assaulted; I have not an enemy in the
world.'
'That,' said the defendant, 'is why I struck him.'
'Let the prisoner be discharged,' said the Judge; 'a man who has no
enemies has no friends. The courts are not for such.'
