lie stood erect, facing the court, and
listening intcntly to every word uttered
by the judge, who was visibly affected
by the solemnity of the occasion and

In overruling Howard's motion for a
new trial, which occurred only few
moments before sentence was pronounc-
ed, the court said he did not consider
any of the matters set up in the affidavits
MED by the defense as sufficient to cause
a new trial. The affidavits of the defense
the qualifications of several of
the Jurors had been fully offset by coun-
ter atidavits filed by the prosecution.
But as to the admission of one bit of tes-
timony the court was in great doubt as
to whether the defendants rights had
not been prcjudiced, although the ruling
it was i'll accordance with de-
cisions of the court of appeals.
