on trial for several weeks. She was.
however, not released, being remanded
to the Tombs to answer to the charge
Of numbering her uncle, who was kill
ed at the same time as his wife.
The verdict was such complete
surprise to Assistant District Attor-
ney Ely, who has conducted the prose-
cution, that he was unable to say def
nitely whether the second charge
would be prosecuted.
The verdict was the more surprising
from the fact that, the killing being ad,
mitted, Judge Scott in his charge in
structed the jury that in default of
justification, which plea he said had
not been advanced, and there being
little evidence of the abuse alleged as
an excuse, except the prisoners own
testimony, they should properly find a
verdict of murder in the first degree
