followed by Berry Randolph for
the defense who presented the de.
Tense In a logical and convincing
manner. Those who were present
at the opening of the defense say
Mr.. Randoph's presentations of facts
and argument was both logical and
convincing IN its effect and that
Mr.. Randolphs ability to present
his case was fully demonstrated not
withstanding the fact that his time
was limited and his friends were
highly gratified at the demonstration
of his ability as an advocate. Other
arguments on the part of the de
fense and the Territory will be pre-
sented this afternoon and predict
ions of acquittal are numerous.
