The acme of realism was reached.
though by accident, in a criminal trial
a few years ago at Lebanon, O.
Two men had personal encounter.
One of them after vainly trying to
draw his pistol from his hip pocket,
turned to flee. A moment later he fell,
shot in the small of the back One
chamber Of his pistol was found to have
been fired. His assailant was tried for
murder.
The defense contended that the man
had shot himself while trying to draw
his pistol, which had become entangled
in the lining of the pocket, and that the
prisoner shot had not taken effect.
The prosecution contended that such
wound could not have been self inflicted
The defendants counsel, Clement l..
Vallandigham, undertook to demon
strate to the jury just how the dead
man. pistol had hung in the pocket and
just how possible il was to infiict such
a wound. Suddenly there was loud
report, and the lawyer sank to the floor.
The ball had entered the back almost in
the identical spot where the dead man
had been shot.
The defendant was acquitted, Mr..
