school, and five of his students
received No. 1 certificates in the
Uniform Examinations last year,
and great portion of them No.

ers, that the examinations last

our opinion, one could not better

knowledge it takes to do this
than to attend this school. Sew
eral students are already making
preparations to attend, and Mr..
Terrell thinks the school will be
larger than the one he taught
last year. Those intending to
enter, should inform him as soon
as convenient, so that he may be
prepared for you.

killing. 1t Is not necessary that the
intention TO kAl should exist any
particular length of time prior To
the killing, and IT is Sufficient If
such intent comes into existence for
tho first time at the time OF killing
or any time previously.
8. Every malicious homicide Is pre-
sumed To be murder In the second
degree; to raise the ofTense to muir

the burden OF PROOF Is upon the pris-
oner.

to the conduct OF the accused conf

a
crime then you should find him
guilty.
8. But the burden Is upon the
Commonwealth to prove beyond n
reasonable doubt that the deceased
was Killed by the accused in the
manner and by the means charged
In the indictment.
6. And the law presumas every per
son charged with crime TO he limo
cent until his guilt Is established by
the Commonwealth beyond reason
able doubt. and this presumption OF
Innocence goes with the accused
through the entire case, and applies
at every stage thereof. and H. after

this case the Jury have reasonable
doubt Of the guilt OF the accused
