Found Guilty of MuId,r.

PARIS, March 80, via SOUTH PARIS, March 81
In the ST.. court for Oxford county, in the case
State VS.. |. E. Morgan ct al, Mr.. Hastings made
his opening argument for the defence, and called
the two respondents to the stand, who detailed
the circumstances attending the birth, death and
burial of the child, explaining whatever threats
they had made and the acts and circumstances
deemed more or less suspicious, and tending to
establish the theory that the child came to his
death from disease or from an overdose Of aco-
hol administered to it by Mrs. Crooker, before
she brought it TO Libby's. This is the theory OF
the defence.
They testified that the child was in an uncon-
scious condition when it was brought 10 the house,
Saturday morning, in which state it remained
until its death in the afternoon.
This closed the testimony, and the counsel all

ed the evidence and endeavored to show that il

and able.

siderable length, contending that although there
