THE SUMMING UP or Nh. HALL.
Mr. Hall, the District Attorney, summed up on tho part
Of the prosecution He bad considered this mys
terous CASE any more than any other murder 70 which
thero were eye witnesses. Murder-oh common law
murder-moved and nstigsied by tho devil, and with
malice aforeshousht has always about such element
Of seesy that unless bring 70 bear al the reasoning
powers Of put together circumstances and
trivial facts, We never arrive ut that co0ciu
SION which we think wo have arrived At whom we
act positive testimony EIs done secret the weapon
disposed Of the tracks covered up evasion and
oouceament take the place Of envy, revenge and
malice which have been cIpated. We contemplate
fear at this day, the crime Of murder from different
stand point from that In which used 70 be contemplated
ri the time Of the Old common law and becomes Us 70
inquire whether we do not hive In ago when mercy
takes place Of JUSTICE and when the security Of ke, Of
property and OF limb being scattered to the winds
Years ago the law PERHAPS looked forward time IKE

cumssances honestly and fearlessy-not rejecting the
