Dan Crawford Creates Little Breeze
In the Criminal Court.
"For heavens sake, come here quickl"
These were the words which rang out
upon the still air in the criminal court
room yesterday. They came from the lips
Of Gen. G. p. NJ. Turner, who had sud
denly appeared at the door leading from
the prisoners ante-room 10 the court
chamber.
Deputy Sheriff Tom Taylor responded to
the call with all the alacrity Of brave and
sinewy official. lie found the trouble TO
be with Dan Crawford, the man who muir.
dered his rival for the hand Of a dusky
maiden, near Horn Lake, short time
since. Crawford was in the prisoners
room, chained to John Williams, another
colored prisoner. His attorney, Gen. Tur
ner, went to talk with him. Dan pretendi
TO be stark crazy and occupies his time in
walling his eyes about in very wild sor
Of way. While Gen. Turner was question
ing him, he suddenly began pounding
Williams with his fists. Deputy Taylor
succeeded In Handwriting Crawford.

his discharge directed by the proper au-
thority, although he may have believed
that such was the fact, yet this would not
excuse him. This must seem hard law,
but il is essential TO the safety Of the State
and community in which we live. The
measure OF duty to be performed by the de-
fendaut and all other public officials is
fixed by law. Any argument addressed to
you to disregard these plain requirements
OF the law is an insult TO your integrity us
sworn Jurors, and should be disregarded
by you in determining the guilt or inno-
cence of the defendant II an officer en-
joying the emoluments OF Office and WELD
ing its occasionally vast powers should be
able to prove in defense OF negligence that
he mistook either law or fact, not only IS
there no negligence that could be punished,
but Ignorance and inconsistency would be
the mask under which all sorts OF official
misconduct could be sheltered, so says the
learned author Wharton on criminal law.
The defendant was bound TO know the law
and the facts AS to whatever or not at the
time it is alleged that he permitted said
convict to leave the work-house before his
| lawful discharge therefrom; and II he re-
| lied upon the information OF any one 1t
matters not il il be the chairman OF the
county court, and he was misled thereby
this is such negligence as the law will pun
ish him for.
Ii in fact it should appear from the
proof that said convict had not been dis
charged in accordance with law, that fact
should have been easily ascortained by an
| inspection of the records OF the criminal
court by the defendant, or the reception
by him OF certified copy Of the same, di-
recting suspension of the remaining sem
tence of said convict.
The law is we'll established that in this
as well as other like cases, il it appear
from the proof that an honest mistake in
regard to state Of facts will not exculpate
when the express prohibition OF the stat
ute has been violated.
The charge in the indictment is OF that
character that the question OF intent, with
which the o0ense may have been COM
mItted, need not be inquired into, nor rs
to what the motive Of the defendant may
have been.
II you find the defendant guilty, you
have nothing to do with the punishment as
that is a matter in the discretion OF the
court as prescribed by the statute, and
your verdict will be, simply, 1--WE the jury
find defendant guilty as charged" and Il
you conclude, after an investigation OF al
the facts in the case, or have a reasonable
doubt as TO defendants guilt, your verdict
will be not guilty.
