In the case Of man who was con-

In the case of man who was con-
victed of manslaughter by the courts
of Arkansas, the Supreme Court of
the United States has decided that a
person has right to kill another in
self defense. The Arkansas court
held that the prisoner, who was at
tackled in an open field, should have
retreated from his assallant, and
reached his own home if possible, and
that he would there have had the
right to stand and defend himself.
The opinion of the Supreme Court,
which was rendered by Justice Har-
Ian, was to the effect that person
attacked with deadly intent while in
the pursuit of his own business, had
the right, no matter where he might
be, to defend himself in any way he
believed necessary, and with whatev.
er force he believed to be required to
save him from death or bodily harm.
