An Accommodating Judge.

In those days, Qrom 1928 to 1S30)
justice was administered in the courts
without much show, parade, or ceremony.
The Judges were gentlemen Of sense and
learning, who had their courts mostly in
log houses, or the bar-rooms of taverns
fitted up for that purpose, with tempo
rary bench for Judges, and chairs and
benches for the lawyers and jurors. At
the first Circuit Court in Washington
county, by Judge John Reynolds, on the
opening the court the Sheriff went out in
to the court yard and said to the people,
Boys come in, our John isgoing to hold
court" This was the proclamation for
opening the court.
In general, the Judges were averse to
deciding questions Of law. They did not
like the responsibility of offending one or
the other parties. They preferred to sub
NIT everything they could to be decided
by the jury. knew one who, when
asked for instructions to the jury on points
of law, would rub his head and the sides
Of his face with his hands and say to the
lawyers, "Why gentlemen, the jury un-
derstand it; they need no instruction !;
no doubt they will do justice" This same
judge presided at a court in which man
named Green was convicted for murder,
and it became his unpleasant duty to pro-
nounce sentence upon the culprit. He
called the prisoner before him and said to
him Mr.. Green, the jury say you are
guilty of murder, and the law says you
are to be hung. want you and all your
friends down on Indian creek to know
that it is not who condemn you; it is
the jury and law. Mr.. Green, what time
would you like to be hung?-the law al
lows you time for preparation" Mr.. Green
said, " May it please your honor, l am
ready at any time those who kill the
body have no power to kill the soul. My
preparation is made, and l am ready at
any time the court pleases."
The Judge replied, "Mr. Green, it is
very serious matter to be hung; it can't
happen to man more than once in his
life, and you had better take all the time
you can get. Mr.. Clerk look at the almanac
and see whether this day four weeks comes
on Sunday" The Clerk looked as directed,
and reported that that day four weeks
was Thursday. "Then," said the Judge,
"Mr. Green, the court will give you only |
to this day four weeks" The case was
prosecuted by James Turney, the Attor-
ney General, who interposed and said
"May it please the court, on occasions of
this sort it is usual for courts to pronounce
a formal sentence to remind the prisoner
of his perilous condition to reprove him
for his guilt, and to warn him against the
Judgment in the world to come" To
which the Judge replied "Oh, MIR.
Turney, Mr.. Green understands the whole
matter he knows he has got to be hung:
you understand it, Mr. Green, don't you?"
Yes" said the prisoner. "Then, Mr..
Sheriff, let the prisoner be remanded and
adjourn court Coo. Ford's History Of
