Joe James Guilty
As Charged in the Indictment
Must Hang.
Royal and Villa ms Make Able
Defense.

Joe James, charged with kill
ing Clergy A. Ballard, July /,
1908, has had his day in court,
he has, apparently. had a fair
trial, impartial, by twelve men
his peers. He has had able law
yers who have s5riven hard to
assure him iustice-he has been
Iried by one OF the fairest judges
of the land; and the prosecution
has been fair; the jury has, we
h I'VE no other reason to believe,
done according TO their sworn
oaths. [ they did not, who
knows aud who are to account
for same but them and their
God.
Probably no able nor more
gentIemanIy have lawyers before
IN this court; cOndu ted case
than did Royal and Williams.
La the examination Of the ju-
rors, Mr.. Royal was une excelled.
The defense had only techni,
calltes to work on, and strove to
show that James, if he killed G
A. Ballard, could not and did
not do So with malice. afore
thought, but was drunk at the
time of the commission of the
crime, and therefore was not
guilty as charged,
We accept the verdict of the
jury-we hope the colored people
will not look at it as being other
than fair, and an unbiased ver-
dict, as we all know the question
was whether or not James was
to be held accountable for the
deed-the defense said not. the
prosecution said he was-the
jury said he was-requiescat en-
pace.
