ExTENuATING CIRCUMSTANCES
Impel the Court 10 give Cross q
Light Sentence.

Light sentence.
The jury in the case of Douglass VIM.
Gross, indicted on the charge of numbering
James Curry in August, 1881, came into
court yesterday afternoon, at $50 o'clock,
with verdict of guilty of man
slaughter. In the charge of the Court
the jury had been instructed that
the proof failed to show murder, aud
the extent of their verdict could
not be beyond manslsughtcr. After the
jury had retired the Judge again read the
statute governing the case and thought he
had failed fully to charge the jury as to
the law, being Of the opinion that should
the proof show it they might convict the
accused of assault and battery. He re-
called the jury, but upon their
return to the courtroom concluded not to
amend the charge, saying that it was wide
departure from the course heretofore OBJ
served, and he would give the subject
fuller and more serious consid Grafton before
acting upon it. The jury, after being out
half an hour, sent word to the Judge,
wishing to know if they could return a
verdict for assault and battery. He replied
that they could not, and said that their
verdict must either be conviction of man
slaughter or an acquittal. They could find
their verdict and no would attend TO the
punishment. A short time afterward
tho jury returned verdict of guilty OF
manslaughter. His Honor, prior to
passing sentence, reviewed the testimony
and circumstances corrected with the case,
the previous injuries received by the de-
ceased, conflict of medical testimony as to
the injury which caused Curry's death,
provocation given Cross to punish the man
and using only the weapons nature had
provided, and concluded by sentencing
him to jaihfor three months.
