that he believed her to be insane when

II accordingly appointed two doctors

that she was sane at the time OF the

mans guilt and no question of her

other woman. The law makes no dis
tnction Of sex in such crime.
This murder was one of peculiar de-
liberation and atrocity. To interfere

that never hereafter. under any circum-
