night. as he stood up with his eleven
colleagues. and looked into the strain
ing eyes of Walter McAlister. Andrew
Campbell and Walter Death. accused
OF the murder of Jennie Bosschieter.
The Jury was out for a little over
four hours. The three prisoners
showed clearly the nervous strain I'M
der which they had been laboring.
Word was sent out at 7:l5 p. IN. that
the jury was ready To hand in its YER
dict. Judge Dixon appeared few
minutes later and the prisoners were
led in.
4 Half Hour of Suspense.
What must have been a half hour
of terrible suspense f1f them fol-
lowed. Their counsel did not arrive
until eight o'clock. When Lawyers
Michael and Charles Dunn did appear
the jurymen were led in. The pris-
oners were slightly pale as they stood
looking at the jurors. Campbell was
the most resolute of the three. Traces
of emotion could be detected in the
faces of the others.
After the jury had been dismissed,
one of them said that the first ballot
showed that five men stood for 4
verdict of murder in the first de-
gree. six for the second degree, and
one man stood for acquittal. The
five who stood for murder in the first
degree soon came around, but the
man who stood for acquittal was fixed
in his opinion. The evidence was then
4 carefully weighed, which consumed
4 over three hours, and the one man
then agreed with the rest.
After the verdict McAlister said TO a
constable:

When they entered the Jail they
rushed TO kerrs cell. McAlister ex-
