Thomas Brown, the convicted murderer of
Policeman Peter Poull, was brought into
court at Moorhead, Mimi, to be sentenced.
His counsel made strong argument in be-
half of the sentence in the second degree
holding that the case furnished exceptional
circumstances which would justify the court
in taking such course. He made also very
feeling and affecting appeal to the clemency
| of the court to spare the life of the unfcrt-
innate man, and send him to prison for life
instead. The court, however, did not feel
warranted, in changing the verdict of the
