In the case ofeX-Gov. WarmOth charg
ed with the murder of ID. c. Byerly =,
Judge Staes, after hearing the evidence,
delivered the following opinions:
s.The evidence given in this case
establishes that you We're right in your
action. When you took the life of Mr..
Byerly it was in legitimate defence of
yours. Although the Court does not like
to take upon itselfto dismiss case ofthis
kind, yet the circumstances are such
that believe that in doing so my ac-
ton will be not only approved by a
higher tribunal but by the whole COM
munity. 1 do not hesitate a single
moment in declaring that you have
acted in self. defense. Although it is /,
very unhappy affair.". and it is to be re-
GREETED that such an occurrence has
taken place, and that the life of a man
has been sacrificed, yet l must say that
you have done so in defense of your life.
I will therefore dismiss you. You
