In the Hustlng's court OF Richmond, va. Sat-
uroay morning last, John Z. Poindexter con-
victed OF the voluntary manslaughter OF Charles
c. Curtis, was led TO the bar for sentence. In
response to the question OF Judge Christian
whether he had anything to say why the SEN

oner arose, and In very firm voice said in sub.
stance that he could not bow his head and re-
celve the sentence of the law without again re-
spending Not guilty." and protesting against

that he would suffer for the remainder OF his

was as great punishment as twenty. He in.
voked for himself the charity that he felt for All
others, and expressed the deepest regret for an
act Which, while committed In the inherent
right or self.defense, would aIways blight his
life. He closed by thanking Judge Christian
ior sympathy and kindly feeling expressed for
himself.
When the accused commenced his address he
spoke In very firm tone. AS he proceeded his
voice became husky with emotion and finally
oyerpowered by his feelings he broke down.
There was considerable sympathy expressed for

going TO vote. He replied for the opposition
candidate. MI. Williams said: ;'If you do so
