he had been convicted and sentenced
to he hung. \ new trial was granted
and the case came OH again in Eliza

Venue was ordered. the case being
carried to Hartford county. In rem
derlng his decision for removal Judge
Moore is quoted as having said: Il
lind that the people of PerQuimans
county are opposed to capital puIL-
ishment. which is in the defendant :
favor. 1t was known that Wilcox
did not want to be tried again in his
own county because he did not be-
lleve that he could get Justice (public
sentiment being against him) but we
did not know that it was the duty of
Judge to remove Il capital case to
county where the people are OPP
posed to capital punishment. That
some members of the bar resort to
all sorts OF tricks to defeat the ends
OF justice is we'll known but Judges
are supposed To hold the scales of
justice impartiallv.
