The oloff Peterson Case.

Some censure was given Coroner Morris
for not arresting C.B. Head as soon as the
verdict Of the jury had been determined,
and to explain why such arrest was not
made. we publish the following letter
from States Attorney .Parmenter:
William G: Morris, Esq, Coroner of Rock Island
County, his,
Sir:-You ask me for my opinion as to
whether the following verdict to wit:
I'VE the undersigned jurors sworn to in
"quire of the death of Oloff Peterson, on
oath do find that he came to his death
by hemorrhage of the left kidney, caused
indirectly by kicks and abuse received
from Charles B. Head, in February last. F"
is sufficient verdict to authorize you to
issue your warrant as coroner for the ar
rest of said Charles B. Head.
In pursuance of that request | would
say that an inquest as defined by Webster
is coroner's jury assembled to inquire
into the cause of sudden death"
The law requires the coroner to appre-
bend and commit to the county Jail any
person who is implicated by the inquest
fas the unlawful slayer of the deceased
there to remain until discharged by due
course of law.
No person can be so implicated as the
unlawful slayer by the inquest except by
by the verdict of the coroners jury, thai
verdict if intended by the jury to be the
foundation of coroner's warrant to hold
any person as the unlawful slayer of the
deceased, should charge IN direct terms
and in language that cannot reasonably be
misunderstood that the person intended t
be held is the unlawful slayer of the de
ceased
The above verdict in my Judgment doe
not set forth with sufficient certainty tina
Charles B. Head is the unlawful slayer O
Olof Peterson.
l am therefore of the opinion that th'
above verdict is not sufficient foundation
for you as coroner to issue warrant 70
the arrest of said Charles B. Head.
E. e. PARMENTER.
States Attorney.
Coroner Morris, says bis course with tn
jury was solely to have them return dc
finite verdict, one that would hold Hea
beyond doubt, or acquit him altogether
His reason for this was, that there coul
be no chance for technicallty. After Pa
menter's decision, he Immediately swol
out complaint against Head chargiu
C him with manslaughter, and Head is no
under 81 500 bonds to appear when wan
ed. THE ARGUS gave the item in fu
last evening, and this further explanatic
: is made at request of some friends
I Captain Morris who think he has been mi
represented Whatever over zeal he nj
2 have shown is certainly more than atone
y for, by his prompt action in having He,
d arrested. We fail to see wherein Morr
i has very materially erred, and as We sa
Is before, are 10th to condemn a worthy c
fcer.
