Special to the Clarion Ledger
Brandon Miss, Feb. 90, 1888.
The third day of the Hamilton trial has
closed and only nine jurors have been se-
cured, seven from the special venire and
two from the thirty-one men since sum-
moned by the shcrif-fiTe colored and four
white named as follows
CO. Crane, white; r. NJ. Downing,
white; Hatton Samples, colored; Perry
Webb, coored; Silas Robinson, colored;
John Fitzhugb, colorcd; Wiley Irving,
colored Lafayette Goodman, white; J.L
Donald, white.
The sheriff declined to summon men
from the by-standers, hut has deputies out
in different parts of the country summon
ing jurors. Of the thirty one summoned
since the special venire was exhaus-
ted, only two were found to be competent.
l. is thought that the jury will be comple-
ted, and that the trial proper will begin
Friday
There seems to be little interest in the
trial. as the attendance on the court is not
larger than usual.
The Impression is gaining ground that
Hamilton will be acquitted.
Col. Hamilton is allowed to take his
meals at the hotel with his family, hut a
deputy is with him constantly.
Hon. Jno. Allen is not expected.
