Strickland caught a crazy negro THAT

then that he didn't have his knife.
This closed the evidence. both sides
stating that they had still quite 81

borate the main facts brought out, but
as this was only n preliminary trial, and
three days had already been consumed
in hearing testimony, they didn't deem

BY consent of counsel on both sides
the case was submitted ON the evidence
| without argument.
Thereupon Justice Roberts said that
| the defendant had not made ont such
/ case as the authorities lay down ms
| necessary TO make out "a homicide in
self-defensc; that he was near his own
home when he saw the deceased and
| that the defendant might have reiterated
or that he might have resorted to other

he himself admits he feared was cont

Il don't think, though, that it is
murder, and therefore / shall admit the
defendant to bail in the sum of 5000
for his appearance at the next term OF
court"
The bond was promptly given and
Browning left for his home. He has
been in Jail here ever since the killing
