half Of the defendant. The main point
OF his argument to-day was 10 raise I'm
the minds OF the jury a doubt as 10
whether Mrs Luetgert is really dead. He
admitted that she had disappeared, but
insisted that II had not been shown De-
yond all doubt that she was dead. Having

doubt in the minds OF the jury. he In
sisted that there should be no halfway
measures I'm the verdict. II LuetBert was
guilty OF this crime. he deserved all that
the law could mete OUT TO him, but II
he was not guilty beyond all doubt, he
should be set free.
Mr. Vincent insisted that the case was
not one for compromise verdict. It
would not do 10 sentence the prisoner TO
