In the cass OF Bass vs. the State, from
Lamar, the cline charged was rape OF par
al7zed inmate of the poor farm, and the
tenalty assessed at death. The main oUes.
ton was this: The indictment charging
the crime to have been committed by force
alone. could the state prove threats. The
evidence showed that the victim r--s II
her own room in bed when her ass iiant
got into bed with her. She ct first cup
posed it 10 be her aunt, but when the
iand began 10 raise her clothes, ebe ho-
lowed, whereupon he whispered "If you
hollow will kill you" The court held
the threats admissible rs res gesim, end
further 10 show the force used, and gs the
courts charge was confined TO force alone,
there was no error and the judgment was
affirmed.
