Oh, the breezes in the summer time
From the gulf and bay to seek,
Bring comfort to your heart
And a glowing to your cheek.
I do not like the Lake Shore drive
Because it is too swell;
But my love for Camp Walton
Is more than / can tell.
I love the trees and wild flowers, too,
And to fish also love
love the wooded country
With the trees a-towering above.
1 do not like electric cars.
Because they run so fast.
I want to live near Santa Rosa Sound,
And stick there to the last.
I am going to build a summer house,
On top of the highest peak
And run for Mayor of Indian Mound,

ACHIEF JUSTICE'SDECISION ON
CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE

The following is decision by Chief Justice Simmons,

If the State relies upon circumstantial evidence,
that evidence must be strong to exclude every
other hypothesis that of the guilt of the accused
IT MUST BE INCONSISTENT WITH HIS INNo-
CENCE This rule must NOT be relaxed.
When henous crime is committed in
munty and the people greatly shocked thereby, it
natural for them to catch at any little circumstance
to throw suspicion upon SOME person. and to conclude
from this that circumstance that he is the guilty
party.
The horror of the crime, and their desire as good
citizens to see the guilty punished and the law vndi
Gated frequently leads them to PREMATURE JUDO
MENT, which oftentimes follows them into the jury
box where as jurymen they not nfrequently find per
sons guilty on BARE SUSPICION alonel'
