guilty. When the verdict was read he
became ''white as a sheet and very ner

attorney did not ask for q stay anything
else. The prisoner was returned To the
county jail. He informed his paramOur,

pretty little baby on the table part of the
time, and while not on the table it ran about

not fixed the sentence, which cannot
exceed twelve months in the county Jail.
