MARY ISABELLE MARTIN
and e. ID. MosLEY, def'ts
We, the jury in the above entitled
cause, do find the said defendant, L. D.
Mosley, guilty of murder IN the first
degree, as charged in the inflammation in
said cause, by cOunseiing, aiding and
abetiing the defendant, Mary Isabelle
Martin, IN The commission of said mur-
der. JOHN A. SMITH, Foreman.
The jury, at the request Of Mr. Lam
bert, for the defense, was polled, ard
each member signified his acquiesencc
in the verdict as signed b. the foreman.
The prisoner, upon the announcement
of the finding of the jury, which CON
victs him of a crime punishable by death,
manifested the same bfazeu spirit of de-
fiance which has marked his course
throughout the entire preceding, and
which certainly has no parallel in the
annals of Lyon county jurisprudence.
Nothing could have exceeded the shame
less insolence which has marked the
bearing OF the MOsley throughout the
trial, and his outrageous conduct,
taken in connection with the evidence
in the case, indicates the justice and
wisdom of the verdict.
The case throughout was
conducted with signal ability by the
attorneys on both sides, and has elected
a very general measure of interest. The
rulings of the cour; have afforded salts
faction to all parties concerned, and the
charge OF Judge Graves 10 the jury was
an exceedingly clear ana welldigested
document
II is Iutimated that the defense will
make I motion for new trial. which
will likely be heard AT The term OF
court which begins on the 5lh proximo.
