by his fellow judges Of the facts. The
offenso charged was assault with in
teri to murder After the Jury had
been out about two hours it~cturncd
the following verdict: We. the jury.
find the defendant guilty of aggravated
assault and assess his punishment as
SIS fine and herewith pay the fine
On inquiry as to the meaning of the
last clause OF the verdict II came out
that II OF the jurors had agreed that
the defendant was not guilty, but the
twelfth doggedly nrnE out for a con.
viction for aggravated assault and
would not consent to punishment
less than fine of SIS. Finding II a
hopeless task to bring over the OBJ.

the eleven finally decided to agree
with him and "chipped in" enough to
pay the fine.

This word, which occurs so frequent.
ly in the Book OF Psalms, is usually
believed to be direction to the must.
clans who chanted the Psalms in the
Temple. Mattheson, the great must
cal critic, wrote book on the sub.
ject, in which, after rejecting a mum.
Der of theories, he came TO the con.
clusion that 1t is equivalent to the
modern "da capo," and is a direction
that the air or song is TO be repeated
from the commencement to the part
where the word is placed. II this be
so, the custom OF reading the word as
though 1t were part of the text is,
of course, incorrect.
