Producing biz head and arm through the

Il was claimed by prisoners counsel

tered the tent with his whole body be
had not committed the oHense charged
and must therefore be acquitted.
Tho Judge In reply to this plea told
the Jury that IL they were not satisfied
that the whole man was involved In the
crime they might bring in a verdict Of
guilty against so much Of him as was
thus involved.
The jury, after a brief consultation,
found the right arm, the right shoulder
and the head Of the prisoner guilty Of
tho offense Of burglary.
The Judge therefore sentenced the
right arm, the right shoulder and head
to imprisonment with hard labor In th'
state prison for two years, remarkina
