hoped Tor averdict of acqui tai:
& The utter absence of malice

Ead. Circumstantial proof that tn,
nah l'om 0'Neill's pistol did not xii
Dsfsh Doyle. The distance rend, ret
lns' '"p@ible, for the pistol wOul,
oos not ny that far. Again, betweei
osfsh D,yle and O'Neill, were fence
sna other obj. t., through which thi

WV prove there were no bullet mark
y uee OF fences. Again, rs the woun,
was l"lizonlsl, the line of the sho
must have been horizontal. We will
prove That a horizontal shot fred iron
snefe o'Neill stood in The dire ciion q

rote 'hat there were three shots fire,
4, that time.
