Thirty-five Years the Verdict.
Thirty-fve years in the peni-
Tertiary was the verdict in the
Dusenberry case. On the first
ballot the vote was taken, guilty or
not guilty. Eleven voted guilty
and one not guilty. The next bal
lot was taken on hang or in prison,
Four voted to hang and eight voted
to imprison. Only five other
ballots were taken and they were
to determine the number of years
in the pen. The votes ran all the
way from 5 to SO years and were
averaged up. The jury went out
at 5 p. m. Tuesday and by II
O'Clock that night had the verdict
ready. W. A. Showers was fore
man OF the jury. When the YER
dict was brought in at 9 a. m. Wed
nesday there were very few in the
court room except the prisoner, his
wife and child and a few attorneys
During the polling of the jury and
the reading of the verdict the
prisoner never moved muscle
and showed signs that he even
heard what was being said. The
wife broke down completely and
pressing her child to her breast,
wept piteously. The little child
wiped the tears from her eyes and
said: "Don't cry, mamma +; it is all
over now ; am not crying; papa
is not crying papa can go with us
now, as it is over" The scene
was quite affecting and brought
tears to many an eye, as by this
time the room was crowded. The
little toddler could not understand.
as it was all over, g why papa had
to go back to Jail and could not &c
| with her." and as her father left,
filling up with tears himself fol
the first time, she said: =" Never
mind, papa come to US as soon
as YOU can-come to dinner with
u.s."
The calling of the next case.
which was a civil one, was an
nouncad in the usual cold ano
formal way and showed that the law
takes its course unmindful of the
tears of women, the prattling O
children or the untlring efforts O
men: The prisoner was remandee
to ,ail and the weeping wife ano
innocent child went 10 their hote
and ths crowd dispersed, comment
| ing upon the verdict and how th.
matter would eventually end.
| ". w. Fry, attorney for the de
fense, yesterday filed the following
motion for new trial, which viii
be argued at the January term Q
Circuit Court:
/ Now comes the defendant and file
his motion and asks the Court for
new trial for the following reasons
4 The verdict is against the law an
the evidence.
The verdict is against the weight {
!, the evidence.
The court erred in admitting in
proper evidence against defendant
objections,
The court erred 1t. rejecting prope
, evidence offered by the defendant
The court erred in refusing instru'
. tions asked on behalf of the defend
ant.
The court erred in giving instru
tions ON Its own behalf and ON beha
of the plaintiff against the defendant
objections.

years, in the discretion of the

years, in the discretion of the
jury.
By the term "forcibly ravish, !"
as used above, is meant the earnaI
knowledge of woman by a man,
forcibly and against her will. If
the jury believe, from the evidence
in the cause, that there was any
element of consent, or if passive
submission on the part of Bette
Sira to y = with the defendant
at the time and place charged in
either instance not enforced by
violence or induced by fear or in
timidation, then he is not guilty,
as charged, and the jury should SO
find and, in ascertaining whether
defendant had = i with Bette
Sira, at the time and place charg-
ed, by violence or fear, or by the
consent of Bette Sira, the jury
should take into consideration all
of the facts and circumstances ad-
dueed in evidence.
The Court further lnstructs the
jury that the defendant is COM
petent witness in his own behalf
and his testimony should not be
discarded, for the reason alone that
he is the defendant, but such fact
may be considered by the jury in
determining the credibility of her
testimony, and the jury is further
instructed that they are the sole
judges of the weight of the evidence
and the credibility of the witness
es in the cause, and if they believe
any one of them has intentionally
sworn falsely as to any material
fact in the cause, they are at lib
erty to disregard the whole or any
part of the testimony of such wit
ness.
The Court further 1nstlucts the
jury that the law presumes the de-
fendant innocent of the crime
charged against him and the bur-
den of proving him guilty thereof,
beyond a reasonable doubt, rests
upon the State; and if, after a full
and fair consideration of all the
evidence in the cause, including
that of the good character of the
defendant, if the jury find it has
been so proven, they entertain a
reasonable doubt OF defendants
guilt, they will give him the bene-
fit of such doubt and acquit him;
but such doubt should be a sub.
stantial doubt touching his guilt
and not mere possibility ofhis in
nocence.
If the jury ind the defendant
guilty their verdict may be in this
forna:
"We, the jury, find the defend
ant guilty, as charged, and we
assess his punishment at
(Here insert the punishment assess
ed by the jury
--Foreman."
If the jury find the defendant
not guilty the verdict may be in
this form:
I'VE, the jury, find the defend
ant not guilty as charged.
