trial Of Captaln HYDE for the murder OF Captain

their skirts in connection with the brutal outrage
testified strongly against the prisoner at the par
as the probable slayer OF Captain Phillips but win
exception every particle OF evidence against 'he
defendant is purely circumstantal. one witness
testified that Hyde admitted that he fired the second
shot the inference being that Phillips shot Wildly
and that Hyde shot with accurate and deadly aim
The lawyers for the defence are not Disconnected
